Esta semana, el pastor Ted Wilson y su esposa, Nancy, comparten sus pensamientos sobre cómo ministrar a los niños más vulnerables del mundo. Según una investigación, los niños que crecieron en un hogar Cristiano amoroso y afectuoso son más resistentes y están mejor equipados para enfrentar los desafíos de la vida. Desafortunadamente, millones de niños viven hoy sin padres. Las estadísticas muestran que Asia tiene 61 millones de huérfanos, África 52 millones y América Latina y el Caribe 10 millones. A lo largo de la Biblia, Dios ha expresado su preocupación al pedirle a Su pueblo que muestre cuidado y preocupación por los huérfanos. Padre de huérfanos y defensor de viudas Es Dios en su santa morada. 6 Dios hace habitar en familia a los desamparados…" (Salmos 68:5, 6). Este sábado 20 de noviembre es el Día Mundial de los Niños Huérfanos / Niños Vulnerables. Bajo la dirección de los Ministerios Adventistas de Posibilidades, este evento anual fomenta la conciencia del bienestar de estos niños y nos anima a hacer lo que podamos para ayudar. La Biblia nos recuerda que debemos responder a sus necesidades. Mateo 19:14 nos dice que permitamos que los niños vayan a Jesús. El Salmo 82:3 dice que debemos "defender al pobre y al huérfano". Además, Proverbios 31:8 nos obliga a hablar por aquellos que no pueden hablar por sí mismos. Isaías 1:17 menciona que debemos proteger a los huérfanos de quienes los maltratan, y , Mateo 25 nos anima a alimentar y vestir a los necesitados. Finalmente, Lucas 3:11 y Romanos 12:13 nos recuerdan que debemos compartir nuestros recursos con los menos afortunados. Ministerios Adventistas de Posibilidades ofrece sugerencias e ideas para ayudar a los huérfanos y niños vulnerables, en el sitio web, www.possibilityministries.org/orphans. Estas sugerencias incluyen la oración, la adopción, la crianza temporal y el envío de obsequios especiales. Los niños necesitan sentirse especiales. Entonces, tómate un tiempo para escuchar sus historias. Además, bríndales un hogar temporal lejos del hogar. Sobre todo, muéstrales a Jesús como su mejor amigo. Testimonios para la Iglesia, volumen 6, dice: "Que los que tienen el amor de Dios abran sus corazones y hogares para acoger a estos niños. No es el mejor plan cuidar a los huérfanos en grandes instituciones. Si no tienen parientes que puedan sostenerlos, los miembros de nuestras iglesias deben adoptar a estos pequeñuelos en sus familias o hallar hogares apropiados para ellos en otras casas.” (6TI 284.3). Y continúa diciendo. ”Estos niños son en un sentido especial seres en quienes Cristo se fija, y descuidarlos es ofenderlo a él. Todo acto bondadoso expresado a ellos en el nombre de Jesús será aceptado por él como hecho a él mismo" (6TI 284.4).
La iglesia ha sido bendecida con organizaciones que brindan servicios para huérfanos y niños vulnerables. Algunos de ellos se enumeran aquí: www.possibilityministries.org/orphans.

Esta semana o pastor Ted Wilson e sua esposa, Nancy, compartilham pensamentos sobre como ministrar às crianças mais vulneráveis do mundo. De acordo com uma pesquisa, as crianças que cresceram em um lar cristão amoroso e atencioso são mais resistentes e mais bem equipadas para enfrentar os desafios da vida. Infelizmente, milhões de crianças hoje vivem sem pais. As estatísticas mostram que a Ásia tem 61 milhões de órfãos, a África 52 milhões e a América Latina e o Caribe 10 milhões. Em toda a Bíblia, Deus expressou Sua preocupação pedindo a Seu povo que mostrasse cuidado e preocupação com os órfãos. “Pai dos órfãos e juiz das viúvas é Deus em sua santa morada. Deus faz que o solitário more em família…” (Salmo 68:5 e 6). Este sábado, 20 de novembro, é o Dia Mundial dos Órfãos/Crianças Vulneráveis. Sob a direção do Ministério Adventista das Possibilidades, este evento anual incentiva a conscientização sobre o bem-estar dessas crianças e nos encoraja a fazer o que pudermos para ajudar. A Bíblia nos lembra de responder às suas necessidades. Mateus 19:14 nos diz para deixarmos as crianças virem a Jesus. O Salmo 82:3 diz que devemos fazer “justiça ao fraco e ao órfão”. Além disso, Provérbios 31:8 nos obriga a falar por aqueles que não podem falar por si mesmos. Isaías 1:17 menciona que devemos proteger os órfãos daqueles que os maltratam. Mesmo assim, Mateus 25 nos incentiva a alimentar e vestir os necessitados. Finalmente, Lucas 3:11 e Romanos 12:13 nos lembram de compartilhar nossos recursos com os menos afortunados. Com isso, o Ministério Adventista das Possibilidades oferece sugestões e ideias para ajudar órfãos e crianças vulneráveis em www.possibilityministries.org/orphans. Essas sugestões incluem orar, adotar, promover os pais e enviar presentes especiais. As crianças precisam se sentir especiais. Portanto, dedique um tempo para ouvir suas histórias. Além disso, forneça a elas um lar temporário longe de casa. Acima de tudo, indique-lhes Jesus como seu melhor Amigo. O livro Testemunhos Para a Igreja, Volume 6, diz: "Abram, aqueles que têm o amor de Deus, o coração e o lar a essas crianças. Não é o melhor plano cuidar dos órfãos em grandes instituições. Caso não tenham parentes capazes de tomar conta deles, os membros de nossas igrejas devem adotar esses pequenos em sua família ou encontrar lugar conveniente para eles em outros lares." Continua: "Essas crianças são, em sentido especial, objeto da atenção do Senhor e negligenciá-las é uma ofensa a Ele feita. Todo ato de bondade para com elas, em nome de Jesus, é aceito por Ele como feito a Ele próprio." A igreja é abençoada com organizações que prestam serviços para órfãos e crianças vulneráveis. Algumas delas estão listadas aqui: www.possibilityministries.org/orphans. Com isso, que o Senhor abra nossos olhos e toque nossos corações, mostrando-nos como podemos ministrar a essas crianças.

This week on ANN. Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte stood reverently as Seventh-day Adventist Church leader Ted N.C. Wilson prayed during a meeting that had been expected to be brief but lasted 36 minutes as Duterte spoke about his faith and Wilson gave an informal Bible study on servant leadership. Wilson, who led an Adventist delegation to the Malacañan Palace, expressed appreciation to Duterte for supporting religious liberty, promoting healthy lifestyle choices, and demonstrating the reconciling ministry of Jesus in granting amnesty to former rebels who have laid down their arms after hearing the gospel through Adventist World Radio. The Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) in Tanzania has been working to lend support during the pandemic but shifted its efforts to focus on breaking down barriers to COVID-19 awareness and prevention. Part of the dilemma involved the local government’s position earlier this year that vaccines were not necessary, and that there were no plans to receive COVID-19 vaccines being distributed in other countries. With the election of Tanzania’s new president, Samia Suluhu Hassan, the administration reversed its stance on vaccines and is working to get vaccines distributed throughout the country. Stirling Adventist Church member Tim Welch has been awarded South Australia Taxi Driver of the Year.

This week, Pastor Ted Wilson and his wife, Nancy, share thoughts on ministering to the most vulnerable children in the world. According to research, children who grew up in a loving, caring Christian home are more resilient and better equipped to face life's challenges. Unfortunately, millions of children today live without parents. Statistics show that Asia has 61 million orphans, Africa has 52 million, and Latin American and the Caribbean have 10 million. Throughout the Bible, God has expressed His concern by asking His people to show care and concern for the orphans. "A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in His holy habitation. God sets the solitary in families…" (Psalm 68:5-6). This Sabbath, November 20, is the World Orphans/Vulnerable Children's Day. Under the direction of the Adventist Possibility Ministries, this yearly event encourages awareness of the welfare of these children and encourages us to do what we can to help. The Bible reminds us to respond to their needs. Matthew 19:14 tells us to let children come to Jesus. Psalm 82:3 says that we are to "defend the poor and fatherless." Also, Proverbs 31:8 compels us to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. Isaiah 1:17 mentions that we are to protect the fatherless from those who mistreat them. Still, Matthew 25 encourages us to feed and clothe those in need. Finally, Luke 3:11 and Romans 12:13 remind us to share our resources with the less fortunate. With this, Adventist Possibility Ministries offers suggestions and ideas to help orphans and vulnerable children on www.possibilityministries.org/orphans. These suggestions include praying, adopting, foster parenting, and sending special gifts. Children need to feel that they are special. So, take time listening to their stories. Also, provide them a temporary home away from home. Above all, point them to Jesus as their best Friend. Testimonies for the Church, volume 6, says, "Let those who have the love of God open their hearts and homes to take in these children. It is not the best plan to care for the orphans in large institutions. If they have no relatives able to provide for them, the members of our churches should either adopt these little ones into their families or find suitable homes for them in other households." It continues, "These children are in a special sense the ones whom Christ looks upon, whom it is an offense to Him to neglect. Every kind act done to them in the name of Jesus is accepted by Him as done to Himself." The church is blessed with organizations that provide services for orphans and vulnerable children. Some of them are listed here: www.possibilityministries.org/orphans. With this, may the Lord open our eyes and touch our hearts, showing us how we can minister to these children.
