Because of what Christian education did for me, I have sent both of my children exclusively to church schools, and I am more than pleased with the results. But the story does not end there.

The program climaxed at the General Conference session in New Orleans in June, 1985. It was at that time Elder Neal C. Wilson, president of the General Conference, launched the Harvest 90 program. HARVEST 90- Representatives from every world division of the church prayerfully committed themselves to it. A PLAN OF ACTION What are the objectives of Harvest 90? 1. The spiritual dimension includes (a) renewal and per- sonal growth through Bible study, intercessory prayer, FOR A FULFILLED fellowship and worship; (b) revitalization of family religion; and (c) reaffirmation of the principles and standards of the church, calling for reformation in appearance and life-style.

Exactly five years. It began July 1, 1985, and will close on June 30, 1990, at the General Conference session in In- dianapolis. There are 20 quarters, 60 months, 260 weeks, or 1,825 days in the program. What has been the world response to the Harvest 90 program? In general, Harvest 90 has had a greater response than the 1000 Days of Reaping. There is a significant evangelistic revival in practically the whole world, including North America and Europe. The world goal for Harvest 90 is to reach 2 million new members. Do you think the church will reach this objec- tive? I am confident our church will reach the goal because this objective of preaching the Gospel has been set forth by Jesus Christ. Furthermore, we can rejoice in the victories of the 1000 Days of Reaping and claim God's promise of help to reach these proposed goals. What resources does the church have for this great world plan? The Holy Spirit and millions of lay persons are the chief resources. In addition, we rely on all church administrators to give priority to this evangelistic thrust by cooperating with more than 60,000 pastors. Also Harvest 90 is supported with abundant financial means. What have been the Initial results in baptisms? For the first time the world church baptized more than 400,000 souls in one year! Up to the third quarter of Harvest 90, according to our progressive chart, we should have had 210,000 baptisms. We had 258,921. We believe that from now on we will see an even greater harvest. Have great evangelistic campaigns been held already? Yes, one of the first ones was held by John Carter in Kingston, Jamaica. Mark Finley held a significant campaign in Munich, West Germany. Juan Lozano led out in a campaign in Salamanca, Spain, where previously there had been no Seventh-day Adventists and now there is a church. Campaigns in Africa resulted in more than 700 baptisms in Zaire. In the Philippines, Far Eastern Division, approximately 500 child evangelists and thousands of lay persons are preaching. Several evangelists and hundreds of lay members in South America are involved in a simultaneous national campaign in What is further expected of the lay members? Ellen G. White wrote: "To every one work has been allot- ted, and no one can be a substitute for another. Each one has a mission of wonderful importance, which he cannot neglect or ignore, as the fulfillment of it involves the weal of some soul, and the neglect of it the woe of one for whom Christ died" (Christian Service, p. 10). What will be the result of this plan in 1987? We expect to enjoy the most successful year in soul winning in the history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. At this rate of evangelization, when do you think the Seventh•day Adventist Church will reach the uttermost parts of the earth? We have practically reached the ends of the earth already.

However, not only in these countries but also in all the others we must reach the most remote places, advancing Bolivia. In Inter America the three division evangelists plus the state by state, province by province, village by village, and in union and local field evangelists, with all the pastors and the cities, suburb by suburb. The greatest challenges before the thousands of lay members are continuously active in church are the great oriental religions such as the Buddhists, evangelistic campaigns. the Hindus, and the Moslems.

Monthly or quarterly baptisms. What is expected of the pastors? We recommend that every pastor throughout the world field conduct at least one evangelistic campaign. We also recom- mend that every pastor formulate and implement aggressive plans to continue evangelism in his district or church. However, the successful pastor is not the one who works hard but alone. The truly successful pastor is the one who recruits, trains and inspires to work the largest number of members in his congregation.
