Inside Story: Patricia’s Prayer — 22 Comments

    • My name is Magea Pole. While studying this weeks lesson me and my wife came across the inside story of this week on Patricia's prayer. We were touched and saddened to read about Patricia's plight, a situation that she is in that she didn't choose.Although we can't be of very much help we are comforted by the thought that God in his abundant mercy and grace will look after her and provide for her.

  3. It is amazing what an impact Adventist schools have in changing lives in remote parts of the world. Years ago, at the age of eight, I was playing with my friends in my village, Patfu Mayawa in central Sierra Leone when we heard the village gong sound. Soon my elder brother Sorie came looking for me. He took me to the village headman's house where other children were already lined up. The Adventist were going to start an elementary school in my village and they wanted us to be the first students. Finally when I stood in front of the teacher, Mr. Myers, he asked me for my name. "My name is Sisay. Shaymoi, sir," I answered. "From today your name is Jacob," Mr. Myers declared. For a boy from a non-Christian home, that was the beginning of my Christian journey. From that encounter with Mr. Myers, I came to love the Bible and decided to join the church. My Muslim window mother did not object to my joining the church after she saw a stark change in my behavior and saw that the new religion also condemned the eating of pork or drinking alcohol. Years later, my Mother was full of joy when I returned to the Adventist high school I attended as chaplain and Bible teacher. After attending Adventist schools all the way to the University, I still believe that Adventist education is the best way to reach young people as it shapes their little minds and leads them to the right direction. Thank God that the church found me on that sunny day in Sierra Leone. I will ever be grateful.

  7. real compassion is good even great, but to truly relief suffering we have to be faithful to God and others with our pocket books/wallet/purses/billfolds. We can constantly give to 13th Sabbath, special offerings, or to the mission field. Giving is not giving without a sacrifice.
