  • CONNECT AND RECONNECT DURING 2009 — About 1 million people have quit attending the Adventist church regularly. To reconnect and invite them back will tie in well with the 2009 evangelism initiative. Creative Ministries supplies training and resources to help church members reconnect with former members or those who have taken a break from active church attendance. Contact: http://creativeministry.org/index.php. The coming holidays are excellent times to reconnect.
  • THE 2008 INNOVATIVE CHURCH OF THE YEAR WINNER, awarded at the 2008 National Conference on Innovation, was the Hillsboro Spanish Church in Portland, Ore. The church attributes much of its success in the community to their relevant community outreach projects such as food banks, health fairs, and free haircuts. One out of every 15 people in the community is attending the church.
  • TALENTED MUSICIANS WANTED to perform at the 2010 GC Session in Atlanta, Georgia. Contact: www.gcsession.org/music to apply. Applications must be received by January 31.
