DEVOTIONAL

The devotional began with a season of prayer in which all took part as they prayed in two's and three's remembering the many requests that were made.

"Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, rejoice" was the text used by the Chairman from his favorite epistle (Phil 4:4). Paul wrote this effusive and joyous letter while in prison separated from all his Christian friends. Yet he could rejoice. When he and Silas were in prison after being severely beaten, they sang songs of praise to God at midnight. An earthquake shook the foundation of the prison leaving the two men free. They did not flee. Instead Paul ministered to the jailer and his family who were converted that night.

Do we rejoice over a soul won to Christ? This should be our greatest joy! The challenge to us in this new quinquennium should be to infuse new light, new joy, and new vigor into our churches so our people may rejoice.

MINUTES of the meeting held August 30, 1990 were approved.

DEVOTIONAL "General Conference Committee members are busy people and likely • to be proud of it," stated W Floyd Bresee. The work of the Lord is perhaps the most acceptable excuse used for neglecting the Lord of the work. Christ advised, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God . . ." (Matt 6:33). He was talking about priorities--putting the important before the urgent.

The busyness problem is solved by right priorities. When Jesus said, "It is finished," all the sick had not been healed. He had not done everything that could have been done, but He had finished the work His Father had sent Him to do. He had kept his priorities straight. It is natural for us to allow the urgent to crowd out the important. The important seldom has to be done today. Devotions are important but easy to put off. The urgent--writing letters, making phone calls, etc--has to be done now. Unless we purposely prohibit it, the urgent will crowd out the important.

Each morning we should ask the Lord what His priorities are for us for the day. The Lord of the work must have priority over the work of the Lord! As leaders of the Church, the most important thing that we can do is to keep close to Christ. Let us not allow even His work to keep us from spending time with Him. • Prayer was offered by Owen Troy. 90-280 September 13, 1990 - GCC

REPORT

Robert S Folkenberg presented a report on the findings of the McBride Report. He felt it was important to bring closure to the trauma and stress that this study has brought to General Conference personnel. Its conclusions cannot be ignored or our credibility with the field will be undermined. Some services will have to remain discontinued because it is the field that decides what we do for it. The ultimate objective is to build unity, credibility, and trust with our people. McBride will present a report to the 1990 Annual Council.

DEVOTIONAL

Jose Luis Campos, Associate Director of the Publishing Department, presented the devotional. "For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith." (1 John 5:4) "I am proud to be a Seventh-day Adventist. I believe in this church. I am proud of our hospitals and colleges, our • food factories and publishing houses, and especially the beautiful simple faith that we have," stated the speaker. It is faith that has led us through the centuries.

Many years ago some Korean people came to Yucatan in Mexico. While they were repairing pots, and speaking very poor Spanish, they shared their faith with Campos' great-grandmother who accepted the beliefs of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. In simple faith the grandmother had been praying for 30 years that she would learn the truth. Her grandchildren could not understand why she worshiped on Saturday instead of Sunday. Years later a small leaflet advertising some religious meetings was slipped under their door. They attended the meetings and were baptized into the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Now they could understand why their grandmother worshiped the way she did.

We, too, should be sharing our faith with everyone with whom we come in contact.

Prayer was offered by Calvin Smith. • MINUTES of the meeting held September 13, 7990 were approved. 90-306 September 20, 1990 - GCC

INTRODUCTIONS • Gordon Engen introduced a group of union and local conference Public Affairs Directors who were visiting the General Conference.

PERSONAL TESTIMONIES W C Scales recently became acquainted with a visitor at the General Conference complex. The man, a professional who works on the opposite side of Highway 29, was curious about what Seventh-day Adventists believe. In the course of their conversation, Scales invited him home for dinner and then took him to an evangelistic • meeting in Baltimore. The man was very impressed with what he heard and plans to attend church on Sabbath. Scales is praying that God will continue to guide him to the truth. F Donald Yost spoke of sending a note of encouragement to a former colleague who has not yet found employment. He has encouraged him to remember the times when his work has been affirmed, his counsel sought, and times when the Lord's presence has been very near. He stated that in his experience this has helped him when he has found himself in a difficult situation. He felt that recalling the past blessings of God strengthens us in times of trial.

REPORTS William G Johnsson mentioned an article that appeared in the Washington Post this morning. According to the article, people in the Soviet Union now have religious freedom, and atheism is not to be taught in the schools any longer. Charles R Taylor has been in contact with a former hospital administrator who has gone into private business for himself and has had contact with high government officials. This layman is now willing to invest $600,000 in an Eastern country to make it possible for the work there to be self-supporting. • 90-322 September 27, 1990 - GCC

Thomas R Neslund recently returned from the Soviet Union. One of the big problems there is alcoholism. In 1987, to help solve the problem, the government reduced the alcohol content in alcoholic beverages, raised the legal age at which an individual could purchase alcohol, and reduced the hours during which it could be purchased; consumption decreased. In 1988 sugar began disappearing and it was discovered that individuals were producing liquor illegally. To stop this practice, the government allowed more companies to produce alcoholic beverages; and consumption has again increased. Now the government and the Russian Orthodox Church are joining together to try to create a sober society. It is hoped that the Seventh-day Adventist Church will involve itself in endeavoring to solve this problem.

In Latvia Neslund conducted a stop-smoking program with over 400 people in attendance. Because of a shortage, people stand in line two and one-half hours to purchase cigarettes; and tobacco products are very expensive. Neslund wondered if he should make his usual call to throw away all tobacco during the program. At the appropriate time, he urged the ones attending to give up their cigarettes and throw them into a large box. He was greatly encouraged when they readily complied with his request. He was even more encouraged the following weekend when many attended the Adventist service where he was the speaker.

Prayer was offered by James T Bradfield who remembered G Ralph Thompson presently in the coronary care unit at Washington Adventist Hospital after suffering a mild heart attack. •
