Brandon Westgate – Ward, Colorado … “Elevate” was the theme for this year’s Greater Summit teen prayer retreat at Glacier View Ranch, and the presence of God was truly felt. About 80 teens and sponsors attended the long weekend event January 13-16. Speaker for the event was Jessica Rios from Campion Academy who presented powerful and honest messages that truly resonated with the young people. Praise and worship was followed by a time of Bible study and conversations that solidified the challenging message that had been presented.

RMCNews – Greensboro, North Carolina ... January 8-11 concluded three intense years of leading the churches in each of the North American Division conferences in new ways of doing ministry. Several hundred church ministry leaders have had to get creative and think outside the box during the pandemic, as they could not allow the pandemic to stop them from sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Under the theme Replenish, the Adventist Ministries Convention met in Greensboro, North Carolina, to evaluate their own ministry and learn how creative and successful other colleagues had been.

Fred Hardinge – Montrose, Colorado … January 15 witnessed the start of a health outreach at the Montrose Adventist Church. More than 35 people attended the first night, learning how to prepare delicious meatless meals, sampling each demonstrated dish, and being shown how easy it is for vegetarians to get protein and needed nutrients for wholesome living.
