Eastgate SDA Church! a Message from Pastor Eric Sayler: Everything Seemed to Be Done Welcome to Eastgate SDA Church! A message from Pastor Eric Sayler: Everything seemed to be done. The ground was dry, the sun was shining, the birds were singing, grass was soft underfoot, and Adam was joyfully looking from one discovery to another, fascinated by all the things God had made. The more he looked, however, the more he realized that maybe God wasn’t done yet. Adam began to feel lonely. He wasn’t alone, with all the animals and God’s presence, but there was definitely something missing. So God created Eve. Adam’s other half and, as He did so, God created the first marriage. This Sabbath we are going to celebrate this final creation of God: Marriage. As a part of our worship service we will be blessed to be a part of George and Marylin’s joining of their lives together in holy matrimony. I’m looking forward to worshipping with you! ~Pastor Eric This Weekend: May 25, 2019; Pastor Eric continues discussing Christ, the relationship with the church and comparisons of brides, bridegrooms and marriage. Join us for potluck following the service and a reception for George & Marylin. Next Weekend: June 1, 2019; Pastor Eric will begin a three part series on the Holy Spirit.

  • 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.
