Volume XLVII, No. 17, September 7, 1978 , Ontario Pathfinders Have a Passport

The Youth Department of the General Conference has prepared a "passport" for Pathfinders around the world. The red-and-gold brochure is just off the press at the Review and Herald Publishing Association, and is available through the Adventist Book Centres. The 32-page booklet is very similar to the passports being used by Pathfinders in Europe. Now, each Pathfinder will have the opportunity to own his passport and to record the many club activities. Room is provided for I.D. information and picture, baptismal record, space to place the names of all the members of the club, records of all Investitures, participation in summer camps and special club events like Halloween, Ingathering, Pathfinder Day, parades, camp-outs and community service. There is also space to register the conference-wide events like camporees, fairs, bike-a-thons. Each Pathfinder can keep a record of all the honors achieved during the five years of Pathfindering. For the autograph seekers there are several pages to make a good collection. Leo Ranzolin

The people of the Far East thank you in anticipation of Sabbath offering. After much careful study, the following receiving an overflowing 13th Sabbath offering this Christmas. were the projects chosen: erect Sabbath School "lamb shelters" and jungle chapels to help cope with the membership explosion; build a hospital to accommodate the fast expanding soulwinning health program of Calbayog Clinic, Central Philippines; provide much needed equipment for the Korean Vocational Training School; and erect new classrooms, dormi- tories and an auditorium for Goshen Adventist High School, Sabah, Borneo. Some may question why the world Sabbath school mem- bership should be asked to provide lamb shelters and jungle chapels for companies in the Far East. In these rural and jungle areas, cash is in short supply for the people are poor and often primitive, subsisting only on what they can make and grow. These new Christians willingly contribute their time, energy and meager resources to build places of worship, but they desperately need the financial help that you can give to purchase materials. Jungle chapels in the Far East are built to a simple design, so that Dr. Orbillo Varona and the staff of 20 at Calbayog Clinic in available funds can be spread over a wider area. the Central Philippines treat more than 1,500 patients each month in their small rented premises.
