Though it is God who changes people, the early Adventists employed specific spiritual practices to place themselves in His presence. Research revealed five main spiritual disciplines that shaped the Advent leaders and by extension the church. The first is Bible study: placing the Holy Scriptures as the foundation for all beliefs. The second is prayer: communication and communion with God.

  • Adventist Health INTERNATIONAL
    Adventist Health INTERNATIONAL 2001 ANNUAL REPORT PRESIDENT’S REPORT It has been quite a year. Amidst the concerns about security, terrorism, and the understanding of other cultures, AHI has flourished. We have officially grown from two countries to six countries includ- ing nine hospitals and 30 clinics. As you will see in this report, AHI is now active in Cameroon, Ethiopia, Guyana, Haiti, Rwanda, and Zambia. Our new hospital building in Gimbie is nearing comple- tion, Davis Memorial Hospital in Guyana is doing well, and strategic plans are being implemented in the new countries, including hospitals with well-known names like Mugonero, Mwami, Yuka, Koza, and Port- au-Prince. Perhaps even more gratifying has been the expansion of the AHI support base. In this report, you will meet the AHI officers who provide considerable time and effort in moving projects forward. We have also been blessed with several extraordinary volunteers who continue to make a real difference in achieving our goals—the stories of Karen Simpson and Kelvin Sawyer are truly inspiring. And finally, there are the many donors and agencies who have confirmed their belief in what AHI is doing by provid- ing financial support. From our board members to the individual staff and volunteers who make it possible, God has woven a tapestry of love for serving others. I want to personally thank the Board of Trustees of Loma Linda University and Medical Center, and later the AHI board, for their willingness to support a new idea and approach. Dr. Calvin Rock, now retired, was chair of those boards during the foundation of AHI.
