Women’s Ministry Dorm Daughter Program The Women’s Ministry is excited to sponsor the Dorm Daughter Program again this year! If you’re interested in participating, please join us in the foyer immediately following today’s service to be paired with your dorm daughter. .As a dorm mom, you’ll be connected with a high school-aged young woman from Ozark Adventist Academy. Throughout the school year, you’ll have the opportunity to support her with prayer, small gifts, and encouraging notes. It’s a wonderful way to show Christ’s love and make a lasting impact in a young person’s life. We’d love for you to be part of this meaningful ministry!

Thirteenth Sabbath Offering – 4th Quarter

South American Division

BRAZIL

The South American Division’s seminary, the Latin-American Adventist Theological Seminary, is located in Brazil.

The first Seventh-day Adventist to visit Brazil was L. C. Chadwick, who stopped over in Rio de Janeiro for several weeks in August 1892.

 In May 1893, the first Adventist colporteur, Albert B. Stauffer, arrived in Brazil. Stauffer sold books in German and English because there were no church publications in Portuguese.

 In 1900, Guilherme Stein Jr. published the first missionary magazine, O Arauto da Verdade (“Herald of Truth”), in Rio de Janeiro.

Thank you for supporting this quarter’s Thirteenth Sabbath project in Brazil and Chile with your prayers and donations.
