Union Conference and chairman of the Atlantic I am continually amazed to observe at Union College Board of Trustees. at www.atlantic-union.org Atlantic Union GLEANER, September 2004 3 Too Blessed to Be Stressed here it sat. I resisted the urge to open the postal package. I knew there would be treasures in that box especially for me from a very special friend. So it sat until Tjust the right moment. As I sat in my comfortable worship spot in our living room, I was very uncomfortable inside. It was one of those frustrating mornings. I wanted to worship Him, but my mind was in competition. The adversary seemed to taunt with thoughts that were critical, complaining and sometimes condemning. Those thoughts collided with the invitation to “Come and seek Me” and “Cast your cares upon me.” “How can I praise You, Lord, when I am so stressed?” My bombarded mind seemed to spiral to despair. “Lord, maybe I need some cheering!” I noticed my unopened parcel and decided now might be the right time. As I slowly relished in each gift, I dis- covered a little book. I randomly opened its pages. “I’m too blessed to be stressed,” its page proudly proclaimed. “What do you mean, Lord? ‘I’m too stressed to be blessed!’” As I said those words, a reality startled me. It was as though I heard God ask, “What would you like to do about that?” I remembered a verse that said, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus”— Philippians 4:6,7 NIV. Perhaps that’s what my brother, Herm, meant when he responded to the CoNNECting editorial. He mentioned something about “disconnect- ing” so that one could “connect.” Perhaps as we disconnect from criti- cism, complaining, and condemnation, we can connect to truth. Disconnect to connect. Disconnect from focusing on the stress to focusing on the Savior. Disconnect from focusing on the problems to focusing on the promises of God. Does my stress change? Sometimes. More important, my attitude and my By Lynn Ortel resource change. God said if I admit the truth about what’s happening in my life and continue to trust Him, my stress will be reduced because my heart will have connected with Him. I will be able to praise and be grateful in spite of the stress. God won the competition that morning. I am grateful! Remember the little book? Back in the late 80’s, my friend Phyllis gave me a friend- ship/gift bag. I could use the contents myself or share with someone in need. That very bag with a picture of swans on each side has been sent back and forth between us. The bag, now crinkled, glue-gunned and taped, still sends powerful messages—messages of building up and blessings. I wonder if Phyllis realized the potential of her little book. God did! His timing was per- fect and powerful. I wonder what God will do for Phyllis as I send her package today. Lynn Ortel, communication and supportive ministires director for the Northern New England Conference, writes from Portland, Maine. 4 Atlantic Union GLEANER, September 2004 Visit the Atlantic Union Web site Northeastern Conference Constituency Session Report Administrators Reelected The Northeastern Conference convened its first quadrennial coordinator - Jose Joseph; Hispanic coordinator - Isaias Rojas; and twenty-fourth regular Constituency Session on June 6, Western New York coordinator - James Parham on a volun- 2004, at Camp Victory Lake in Hyde Park, teer basis.

    I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace given me through the working of his power. Alberta Camp Meeting Camp Meeting Alberta 15- 23, 2016 July Ephesians 3:7 (NIV) Message from the President Welcome to Alberta Camp Meeting 2016! When Paul wrote to the Ephesians, he commented, “I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace…” (Ephesians 3:7), hence the theme, “Servant of Grace.” Healthy leadership is a core value our Conference embraces and Scripture is full of examples. Noah demonstrates leaders persist in doing right even if they have to stand alone, Joseph proved good leaders endure in spite of diffi culties, Moses validates that leaders accept counsel, Deborah displayed a willingness to come along side of her peo- ple when diffi cult tasks are to be accomplished, David exhibited incredible courage and Jesus reveals that a true leader is focused on serving rather than being served. Perhaps the greatest threat to healthy leadership is egotism. Lucifer, a talented leader in God’s universe succumbed to pride. It leads to self-exaltation, a desire to control and ma- Ken Wiebe President nipulation. Even Jesus’ disciples openly sought to be the greatest and Jesus reminded Alberta Conference them, “But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant” (Matthew 23:11). Ken Blanchard and Phil Hodges in their book, Lead Like Jesus make this noteworthy statement, “Most of the leadership that shapes our lives does not come from leaders with titles or an organization chart; it comes from leaders in our daily life role relation- ships” (page 10).

  • 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.
