This Month's Issue

This fall, the Allegheny East and Chesapeake conferences will join forces—with support from It is Written, the North American Division and the Columbia Union Conference—to host evangelistic meetings in Baltimore. Prior to the meetings, members and volunteers will be working on projects throughout the area to prepare for the event.

One of those projects is a free medical clinic September 25, 26 and 28. Licensed medical and non-medical volunteers are needed to help share the love of Christ in Baltimore.

Seventh-day Adventist members from around the world will gather July 3–12 in St. Louis for the 62nd General Conference (GC) Session, where delegates will fellowship, conduct church business, elect leaders and watch ministry reports from across the globe.

Writing and reporting by V. Michelle Bernard, Michele Joseph, Alan Hecht, Monte Sahlin, Kelly Butler Coe, Taashi Rowe and Laverne Henderson. 

Many lifelong church members are unaware of the organizational structure and operations of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. This article seeks to clarify the history, structure and role of the Columbia Union Conference and its members within the church.

Summer camp season is about to start! Last summer, more than 600 campers attended at least one of Columbia Union Conference’s camps, where they spent time in nature, playing sports, doing crafts and learning about Jesus. Out of those attendees, 390 chose to follow Jesus.
