God Still Acts

By Doug Bing, May 08, 2019

Utter cacophony. That’s what an orchestra band sounds like as it warms up for a concert. Everyone is playing their own notes. And then the conductor steps forward, the concert begins, and the individual sounds blend together in harmony.

We see the same potential for harmony in the church as we follow God’s lead to carry out our gospel commission to share God’s love in western Washington.

Here in Washington, we see God in action in four key areas of ministry: Adventist Christian Education, Coaching Leaders, Total Member Involvement, and Spiritual Growth.

We’d like to share a few highlights with you about how God still acts through His people as we work in concert together in this Washington Conference 60th Session video report.

The Gleaner is a gathering place with news and inspiration for Seventh-day Adventist members and friends throughout the northwestern United States. It is an important communication channel for the North Pacific Union Conference — the regional church support headquarters for Adventist ministry throughout Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington. The original printed Gleaner was first published in 1906, and has since expanded to a full magazine with a monthly circulation of more than 40,000. Through its extended online and social media presence, the Gleaner also provides valuable content and connections for interested individuals around the world.
