Big Picture of Ministry

May 13, 2016

Journey to the Cross, an Easter musical by Auburn Adventist Academy Church and its ministry partners, shared the story of the redemptive life of Jesus and the Great Controversy (from the war in heaven to the Second Coming) with community guests in March.

Vision for Growth Congress brought together education leaders to discuss best practices in growing recruiting efforts and increasing enrollment in Adventist Christian education.

A new Brazilian Portuguese church plant is getting established in Kirkland to share the gospel and offer outreach projects to the underserved community of Brazilians in the Seattle area. Already 30–35 people participate in biweekly programs, and the ministry's online presence is connected with 2,118 people and counting.

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.
