There will be no unrepentant sinners in the Heavenly Zion; there is no quick recipe for a successful mission field.&nbsp; There will be no saved sinners desiring to go back to sin on the banks of the River of Life, but there will be many, many saved by the grace of Jesus Christ. This saving grace is not cheap; it's paid in full by the blood of our Lord. And those that value it will give up everything to have it.&nbsp;</p> Thu, 09 Jul 2026 10:58:21 +0000 http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/69425 <p> The St. Joseph Seventh-day Adventist Church invites you to join them at 9:30 a.m. for Sabbath School and worship at 10:45 a.m. This week, Michael Lamond leads out in the worship service.

Everyone was impacted in unique and profound ways. The lives and ministries of the 29 students and six faculty and staff will never be the same.</div> <div> &nbsp;</div> <div> Living and traveling by river boat, the team journeyed to remote villages to share the gospel, run local ministries and partner closely with indigenous church leaders. Amidst the hard work, they witnessed God&rsquo;s hand at work in profound ways and experienced incredible hospitality from the local communities.</div> <div> &nbsp;</div> <div> It was truly a life-changing experience. Every team member returned home with a renewed passion for global service and a deeply impacted perspective on faith. The lives and ministries of our team will never be the same.

After years of walking with the Lord, Abraham was continuously becoming closer to God, and so he started looking at the people around him with compassion and love. Though the wicked cities he tried to save were still destroyed, we witnessed the heart of Abraham becoming more like the heart of God.&nbsp;</p> Thu, 02 Jul 2026 11:19:23 +0000
