Best of all, the students see the results of their labors. "Seeing God at work through their efforts now—that's what gets students excited about evangelism for the future," says Roeske. Roeske's evangelism course meets two semesters in a row. In the first semester, the students learn about Bible study and other types of personal witnessing. They participate in stop-smoking clinics, health- screening clinics (in cooperation with students from the Nursing Division), and cooking schools. Then in the spring semester they plan, advertise, and carry through the Revelation Seminars. Full-time teaching was not exactly what Roeske had in mind when the call came from Union College. He had his mind set on being a pastor of a large church. Born in the part of Germany that now belongs to Poland, Roeske emigrated to Canada in 1957 and became a naturalized citizen then in 1965. He attended Canadian Union College where he met and married his wife, Carol, and received his Bachelor of Theology degree. For the first pastoring district, he requested North Dakota, thinking his German would be a plus among the many German emigrants there. He still jokes about his "North Dakota accent". But his district there turned out to be 90% Russian emigrants. "The Lord works in mysterious ways," says Roeske. lder Sieg Roeske, associate professor Roeske's student-run evangelism efforts He earned his masters degree in E of religion, believes that evangelism began seven years ago.

The television program has led thousands to attend locally held seminars, directing many of these people into church membership. Breath of Life is a nationwide top-quality program positively effective in reaching people of varied ethnic and cultural backgrounds while making an impact on its target: Black America. Pastors Charles D. Brooks, Walter Arties, and Reginald 0. Robinson are committed to maintaining the high standards that have brought the telecast wide acclaim, in spite of meager resources. Follow-up evangelistic series have yielded thousands of baptisms and the establishment of new Breath of Life churches in Memphis, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, and Columbia, Missouri. There is no question that the Adventist Church has three first-class television programs designed to reach a variety of audiences. But as Myron Widmer so clearly pointed out in a recent Adventist Review article entitled "Adventist Media—At Risk?" the church has been satisfied with "but token media presence—limited locales, limited hours, few prime-time slots". It has always been sobering for me to realize that each of the major television preachers—Robert Schuller, Oral Roberts, Jimmy Swaggart, and Jerry Falwell—have The Impact of Television multimillion dollar budgets.

About this time Ruth began to suffer severe health problems that left her little time or energy to think about church or about pursuing a relationship with a God she already mistrusted. Tests in 1975 showed she had lost 80% of kidney function. For the next four years she was an end-stage renal patient. Then, in 1979, she received a kidney from her younger sister. During her years of daily facing the reality of her own mortality, Ruth started wondering about God and what would happen if she died. Following the successful kidney surgery, Ruth realized that God had given her a new start, and that maybe He really did have a plan for her life. At first she returned to the church where she had been reared, but it no Ruth credits her friend and new sister in the faith, Georgia Quigley, with leading her to longer seemed to meet her needs.

This past October Eden Valley-trained missionaries Richard and Michelle Calderon and their three boys opened a health bakery in Hsin Chu, Taiwan, right around the corner from the Science Based Industrial Complex, Taiwan's center of technological development. The Calderons want to set up a model industry so that Taiwanese Adventists can earn their living without Sabbath problems. The Calderons and two single female Eden Valley missionaries, Laurie Drollinger and Julie Morris, also conduct an English- language school in the small Adventist church. Taiwanese from all walks of life, almost all of them Buddhists, attend the school.

Calvin Teng, president of the Taiwan Mission, greatly appreciates the efforts of the Calderons. "They are the kind of missionaries we need. They support themselves financially and at the same time aid the evangelistic work of the church."

For now, here I lay in the recovery room, unable to move a muscle. All around me I could hear people talking. They were comforting patients, discussing plans for their weekends, and getting orders from surgeons. No one spoke to me. I felt alone and frightened. Please someone ... anyone ... I'm here, I cried silently. My baby is gone and I'm sad. I can't even move. Then a hand touched me, not only touched, but laced its fingers through mine. The hand was warm; it was alive. I could feel the caring in that touch. The warmth spread from my fingertips throughout my entire arm. Before long, my hand felt capable of moving. I raised it to force open my still-heavy eyelids. I saw a young face close to mind. There was kindness in the eyes, and a smile played softly about the lips. But most important was the hand. Like a drowning person clinging to a raft, I held that hand. It left mine briefly to check my blood pressure but always returned. Every now and then, it would give a gentle squeeze. The longer that hand and I were in contact, the faster I could feel my body awakening. The numbness faded, and soon I was able to speak a few words. I felt revitalized and ready to cope once again. After my vital signs had stablized, I was returned to my room. On the way through the big, double doors, I bid farewell to my faithful nurse. There was so much I wanted to tell her, but words seemed inadequate to express my gratitude. So all I said was, "Thank you". She smiled, and I knew she understood.
