    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.

    OLDING hands is something special with me. After over 35 years HI of marriage, I still enjoy holding hands with my wife, Rose. The magic is still there. Holding hands gives evidence of a number of things. It signifies affection, friendship, assurance, agreement, support and commitment. In Isaiah 41:13, our Heavenly Father makes a reassuring promise to earthlings. He says, "For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee" (Emphasis supplied). Have you ever observed a young child who on his own is deathly afraid of dogs but who is comforted and emboldened when his father holds his hand. Likewise, our Heavenly Father extends His hand to encourage and support us. There is really no need for you or me to be afraid if we are holding His hand. We are reminded in Hebrews 11:6 that "without faith it is impossible to please him." Who would dare dispute the necessity of this important factor in the life of every sincere seeker of salvation? Without faith there is no hope of a place in God's kingdom. `Hold Thou I like the way Ellen G. White in her book Gospel Workers, Page 262, defines faith. She says, "Faith is the clasping of the hand of Christ in My Hand' every emergency." She makes an equally important statement in Testimonies for the Church, Volume 5, Page 540, "To let go the hold is Robert H. Carter to perish." President It is important that the struggling child of God recognize the Lake Union Conference importance of maintaining contact with our Lord, the source of our power and strength.
