The Big Picture of Ministry

By Heidi Baumgartner, May 22, 2014

Becky Meharry is joining the Washington Conference education leadership team as associate superintendent beginning in July. She is interested in building positive student, parent, teacher and community relationships.

Puget Sound Adventist Chorale presented the Power of the Cross musical in April. The musical depicts the eight final events of Jesus’ life on Earth, through narration and choral music.

Since 2007, western Washington women have raised nearly $65,000 for Murwira Children's Orphanage in Zimbabwe. This is the ministry of Adventist missionary Paula Leen.

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.
