  • The Organizational Structure
    Florida Conference of Seventh-day Adventists Florida Conference Brigade, Medical Cadet Corps 351 S State Rd 434, Altamonte Springs, FL 32714 The Organizational Structure of the Florida Conference Medical Cadet Corps Organizations, by their very nature of being comprised of many people, tend to be able to fulfill more objectives and care for their members better when there is an internal structure intentionally designed for oversight. This is illustrated in Exodus 18, when Moses was taking care of all of the people of Israel alone as their judge and Moses’ Father-in-law, Jethro, advises Moses to change his approach. Instead of having the line of people waiting to talk to Moses be endless without guarantee of having their issues addressed, Jethro suggested the following for the care of the people and for Moses, himself: “Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens: …If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.” - Exodus 18:21, 23 KJV (emphasis added) Similarly, the Florida Conference Brigadier General over the Florida Conference Brigade does not lead the Florida Conference Medical Cadet Corps (FL Conf. MCC) alone, but rather the tiers of the organizational structure distribute the authority such that all members may be involved and taken care of—by the grace of God.

  • Chronology of Seventh-Day Adventist Education: 1872-1972
    CII818L8tl or SIYIITI·Ill IIYIITIST IIUCITIGI CENTURY OF ADVENTIST EDUCATION 1872 - 1972 ·,; Compiled by Walton J. Brown, Ph.D. Department of Education, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists ·t. 6840 Eastern Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20012 i/ .I Foreword In anticipation of the education centennial in 1972 and the publication of a Seventh-day Adventist chronology of education, the General Conference Department of Education started to make inquiries of the world field for historical facts and statistics regarding the various facets of the church program in education. The information started to come in about a year ago. Whlle some of the responses were quite detalled, there were others that were rather general and indefinite. There were gaps and omissions and in several instances conflicting statements on certain events. In view of the limited time and the apparent cessation of incoming materials from the field, a small committee was named with Doctor Walton J. Brown as chairman. It was this committee's responsibility to execute the project in spite of the lack of substantiation of certain information. We believe that this is the first project of its kind in the denomination's history. It is hoped that when the various educators and administrators re­ view the data about their own organizations, they will notify the Department of Education concerning any corrections and additions. They should please include supporting evidence from as many sources as possible. It is hoped that within the next five to ten years a revised edition may replace this first one. It would contain not only necessary changes, but also would be brought up to date.
