This week on ANN A new animated film by Hope Discovery has won Best Animation at the 10th Delhi Shorts International Film Festival 2021. The film is a project between Speranta TV and the Seventh-day Adventist Church and explores the Great Controversy in narrative form. The project’s goal is to make the Adventist worldview and end-time message accessible to seekers and members alike. The festival had more than 1,300 films registered and, of that, 40 or 50 films were selected. The film has also won Best Animation Feature at the Christian Georgia Film Festival, and an Award of Excellence in the Christian and Sound Editing/Sound Mixing categories at the Accolade Global Film Competition. The North American Division of the Seventh-day Adventist Church recently sponsored its annual enditnow Summit on Abuse. It featured professional presenting on support for children and their families, legal obligations for church members and staff, the threat of pornography, and the dynamics of power and control. The enditnow initiative began in 2009 through the partnership of the Adventist Development and Relief Agency and the General Conference Women’s Ministries Department to stop violence against women around the world. A trained teacher, Márcia do Santos, has dedicated her time to a different kind of class. For more than 12 years, she has been leading a Bible class in Campo Grande, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In the space prepared to receive students attached to the local Seventh-day Adventist church, many stories of transformation have taken place and more than 80 people have been baptized through this work. One of the people reached by her work was Vladimir de Paula. He and his wife learned about the class, attended, and were baptized. Today, inspired by his teacher, Vladimir has also become a Bible instructor. Adventists throughout Northern Asia are finding ways to spread a message of hope throughout this territory.
