Adventist HealthCare has been named one of Newsweek’s Most Trustworthy Companies in America for 2024 – one of only 10 hospitals and healthcare systems in the U.S. to receive this prestigious recognition!

The honor was announced this spring after an analysis by Newsweek and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The rankings are based in part on independent surveys and social listening research that examines the trust levels that companies have with their employees, customers and communities.

Passersby in the ICU at Kettering Health’s Soin Medical Center may notice artwork hanging on the wall. A painting of a colorful tree that is—at a closer look—made of something unique: medication bottlecaps.

A small plaque at the bottom notes that the art is called “The Healing Hands of ICU.” What many may not realize is the art was created by someone in that same unit: Molly Brodess, charge nurse leader.

A Journey to ICU

A hospital stay at a young age motivated Molly to find a career where she could help others heal. She started as a nursing assistant in 2012, then worked her way to becoming a nurse.

After Lynnwood graduated in 1993, they worked for Amazing Facts as a Bible worker and evangelist husband-wife duo. Lynnwood later took a call to pastor in the Pennsylvania Conference, which developed into the role of an evangelist for six years. Next, he was an evangelist for the Texas Conference for 17 years, then moved back to Pennsylvania to pastor for six years.

God has promised that powerful things happen when His people come together to pray: “If two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of My Father which is in Heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, there am I in the midst of them” (Matt. 18:19–20, KJV).

Ellen White reminds us, “The promise is made on condition that the united prayers of the church are offered, and in answer to these prayers there may be expected a power greater than that which comes in answer to private prayer. The power given will be proportionate to the unity of the members and their love for God and for one another” (Manuscript Releases, vol. 9, p. 303).
