Arizona Adventists Will Join Prayer Offensive
““Angels are now restraining the
Adventists around the world are
being called to a great intercessory
prayer offensive beginning Sab-
~ + bath, April 4.
Every mem-
ber, everywhere,
1s invited to con-
tinue In prayer
for those with-
out Christ “‘who
are perishing in
ignorance.” Pray
for those as close
as home as well as those in the ut-
termost parts of Earth.
In Arizona we feel this is the
highest calling we could receive.
We count it a privilege to join
joytully our Adventist family
worldwide in Intercessory prayer,
§
E. F. Sherrill
uniting in purpose and deed, seek-
ing God’s help and power for
specific needs and objectives.
“It 1s a part of God’s plan to
grant us, in answer to the praver
of faith, that which He would not
bestow did we not thus ask.” (The
Great Controversy, p. 525.)
Every Adventist whatever his
situation or abilities can pray.
Prayer 1s one activity in which all
believers can take part. “One
Christian, on his knees, In
prayer,’’ 1s more powerful than a
godless army. Prayer power
becomes more imperative as we
face the increasing limitations of
human resources. Nearly 80 per-
cent of Earth’s people are non-
Christian.

“Come Over to Maricopa and Help Us”
Franco Acunia, missionary
leader of the Maricopa Seventh-
day Adventist Church, doesn’t
give up easily.
When the membership of this
little church on the reservation
outside of Phoenix was decreas-
ing for various reasons, he arose
one Sabbath and spoke in a voice
vibrant with faith.
“No! Our church won’t fade
away! We can’t let it do that!
With God’s help we’ll just build it
back up again!”
This little mission was built in
1937 by Orno Follett, who had
worked among the Indians on the
various reservations of Arizona.
Some of the members still remem-
ber carrying lumber on their
shoulders for miles in order to
build the small chapel.
At that time Elder Follett felt
that the work was flourishing. The
membership grew; and not only
did they build a sanctuary, but
also a church school where the lit-
tle ones could learn more about
Jesus. However, as time passed
the membership began to thin
down; the school closed its doors.
Today, only a scattering of
members continue faithful in at-
tendance.
But Acunia refuses to let this
last of Elder Follett’s work crum-
ble away as has been the case on
nearby reservations. ‘‘There are
people out there just waiting for
us to visit them, to tell them of
Jesus and His soon coming,” he
says.
Whenever he can, Acunia takes
a small group to visit the homes,
to give the message in word and
song and to say a prayer. Some-
times they have even encountered
former members who recall the
old days and the little church
school.
While Acunia is reaching out to
the adults, plans have been an-
nounced to seek out the children
and youth in the area.
If you feel you are only occupy-
ing a seat in your church and are
looking for a field in which to do
missionary work, here is one close
to home. Why not respond to the
urgent call?
“Come over to Maricopa and
help us!”
Madeline Hamiiton, Press Secy.

winds of strife. . . . A moment of
respite has been graciously given
us of God. Every power lent us of
heaven is to be used in doing the
work assigned us by the Lord for
those who are perishing in ig-
norance. . . . God’s people should
make mighty intercession to Him
for help now.” (E. G. White,
