for the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Canada

"Good News" "If only the Romanoffs could come!" This was the sentiment expressed by the ARTS staff as they planned a rally with H.M.S. Richards as special guest and speaker. Ever since Isabel Santos, soloist with the Romanoff Chorus and Orchestra, became a member of the Adventist church, she had been witnessing to her friends the Romanoffs. When she brought them to the studio, Pastor Feyerabend asked if they would help out in the coming rally. They accepted and a new experience was born — for them and for ARTS. It was at one of these meetings that a phrase in a sermon by H.M.S. Richards inspired Mrs. Lesia Romanoff to write the music and lyrics to a happy new song: "Good News When Jesus Comes Again." In the months that followed, other hymns poured from her pen, and her husband arranged these inspirational songs for male voice and harp, prepared a group to record them, and donated the compositions and recordings to ARTS. These will be available in a long playing record the proceeds of which will go the ARTS ministries. For Ivan Romanoff in Canada, it all these new songs. The rare talent of these two started back in the "dirty thirties," with "16 outstanding musicians has been blended to Men and a Harp."

We here at our church in McBride are issessolassuiti thankful for the Revolving Fund. At a time eolustabies when we needed money to be able to get into our church and have it liveable, we were able to borrow $8,500. This amount was about what we expected to receive from the special conference-wide offering for our church. We kept making payments until the offering was taken and now it is paid in full, and though the church is not quite finished in every detail, we are nearly done and have funds ahead. Over the one year and five months of the loan we paid $948. interest at 81/2%. A bank loan could have cost us an additional 2% +. Thus we probably saved upwards of $190. interest.

less In 1972 a small team of workers arrived in Toronto with the purpose of reaching the thousands of Portuguese living in this city. Pastor Henry Feyerabend, with the help of Bible workers Tracy Bravo and her parents, began to knock on doors, but the going was rough. The response was not only negative but even hostile. At that time there were no Portuguese telecasts in Toronto, and the team often discussed the dream of reaching the homes through this powerful

Dr. Edgar Latimer discusses the past providential experiences with Pastor Henry Feyerabend. media. After many unsuccessful visits to the television stations, an offer was made for a contract consisting of 13 five-minute programs at the price of $4,000.00. Feyerabend, feeling that this was an open door, signed the contract. But where would the money come from? As he made his way back to the meeting hall his mind was in turmoil. But as he opened that day's mail there was an unexpected letter from Dr. Edgar Latimer of Massa- chusetts, with a cheque for $1,000.00.

Tracy Bravo was obviously enjoying this Bible study with a Portuguese lady. This was the needed sign to move ahead. Who could know that this would be the first contribution to start a major television ministry on its way? From 1972-1975 the Portuguese church grew from 12 to 300 members, a majority of the contacts being made through television. A stately old building was pur- chased in the downtown area, and this building became the headquarters for the television ministry housing the studios, and it also became an evangelistic centre A Sunday evangelistic meeting conducted by Pastor Feyerabend. for the ethnic people of Toronto. Many highly influential people from the Portuguese community were reached by the telecasts, and are now contributing their talents to the ARTS ministries. Isabel Santos, a well-known singer and recording artist dedicated her talents to the Lord. Her husband, Joe, who is an expert finish carpenter, is constantly involved in the work of the studio.

Joe, Isabel, Bill and Bob Santos. Humberto Carvalho was an atheist at the time of Isabel's baptism. He was invited to use his creative talents helping to produce the telecasts. Isabel not only prayed for him constantly, but continued to witness to him, and he and his wife finally committed themselves to Christ. Humberto is now a manager of a bank, and through him loans were made available to purchase modern equipment for One of Canada's most successful bankers, Humberto Carvalho, serves on the ARTS Board of Directors. the studios. After the founding of the Portuguese work in Toronto, the Lord began to open doors to other communities. Via the CN Tower, signals were reaching Portuguese families in such places as Oshawa, Brampton and Kitchener. But was anyone watching? Several ambitious lay people wanted this question answered. Manuel Pereira, his brother and Joe and Isabel Santos began visiting homes in the area surrounding the Kitchener Adventist Church and to their delight found a number of families eager to study the scriptures. Some had been viewers of the telecast for years. After attending evangelistic meetings, many made a decision to be baptized. The happy group pictured here is a tribute to the importance of the media in reaching people for God.

Maria Gomes, Tina Alves, Pastor Feyerabend and Rose Gomes The joy of baptism is incomparable and much evident in these in Bible study. faces. "God knew a hundred years ago that you needed this place. Even though it is a hundred years old, it was built for television." These were the words of George Vandeman as he stepped into the room in the Portuguese church that would later become the studio. For a number of years that room served us well. Many messages were prepared within those walls. How often groups of people were found on their knees on the floor of this studio. A number of decisions for Christ were made in that sacred spot. The time came when that room could no longer meet the demands that were being thrust upon it. As set material began to grow, the floor space was no longer adequate. There were other problems. It was almost impossible to keep the sounds of the busy downtown traffic out of the studio, security was becoming a problem, and the old building not being made to house all of the electronic equipment was becoming a fire hazard. On January 15 we received the keys to our new building at 5000 Dufferin Street. In this quiet vicinity the Lord had an ideal situation for us. It was a unique setting, with adequate office space, a place to build our much-needed dressing rooms, an area for the building and storage of sets, adequate audio and video control rooms, and a large studio with high ceilings and a drive-in door.

Ron Martin, Pastor Feyerabend's nephew, and Mr. and Mrs. Lee McMiller, Frank McMiller's parents, came from Saskatchewan to help with the work. Gordon Jinkerson, his brother Stuard, and John Wiegman from Keswick came to do the welding for the lighting grid. From Andrews University, Mr. and Mrs. Haroldo Anneis came to be the first students from Andrews to go into an internship program in Communications. Scott Wheeler of the Willowdale church, and many other members from the local churches put in long hours in the preparation of the studio. As some of the important men from the Television studios of Toronto have visitied our studio they have been amazed at the possibilities. In the words of one of them, "There is no finer studio in all of Toronto." We praise the Lord for what He has done. Certainly we are entering into a day of great opportunities.

Dear Fellow Church Members

Adventist Radio Television Services is a denominationally operated studio essentially for the production of radio and/or television programs to be used in the ever-increasing outreach of the church throughout Canada.

While it is located in the Ontario Conference and is operated by Ontario Conference personnel, ARTS is available for the use of workers or laity throughout Canada who need professional expertise in the production of programs for local radio or TV station use, or audio-visual aids for the churches or schools.

Elder Henry Feyerabend and his staff are to be commended on obtaining their new studio facilities and equipment. Of course facilities of this kind require funding, and many will be given the opportunity to assist in the good work being done by ARTS.

The Lord has blessed the ARTS program in so many ways in the past, and it is our prayer that He will continue to bless their activities in the days ahead.

Yours sincerely,

7—Berle, President
