Speaking of hands, in response to illness, Jesus stretched out His hand to someone whose case was similar to COVID-19: the leper! His disease frightened the people around him and he needed to be isolated. Does that ring a bell? In today's times, whose hand should reach out to pandemic victims? You will also be informed about the conspiracy theories buzzing around. Why do certain demographics and ethnicities suffer worse outcomes of COVID-19?

Sabbath School: God’s Messages are Worth Sharing!
He died for us and now lives for us. He came once to deliver us from the penalty and power of #sin and is coming again to deliver us from the presence of sin. This week, we will look at why #Revelation is important for people today. We will look at #Jesus’ invitation to His end-time church to help Him share this final message of #mercy with the people on earth. Jesus died for everyone who ever lived. So, the Good News is for everyone. The Good News is all about Jesus. It is about how Jesus wins the war against the devil and death. Jesus joins us to God again. He came to make us free from sin’s punishment and power. Jesus makes us clean and holy. Soon He will cover us with glory and give us bodies that will not die. Jesus will come again to make us free from sin forever. The Bible tells us about Jesus’ two comings. He came the first time to save us. He will come back to take us home. The book of Revelation was written to help us get ready for the Second Coming.

Pastor Ted Wilson: The Lord Gives Us the Power to Deal with Disappointment for Good
The #Lord will always be with us, but the #Christian walk is not always easy. While there are days when our hearts are full of joy, there are other times when life brings its #challenges and we are not sure what to do. #Disappointments come. Promises are broken. Unwise decisions made. Friends become enemies. Families break up. Churches split. Sometimes situations need to change but you feel powerless to make any difference. Yet, there is good news! As followers of Christ, there is a lot we can do! In this video, Pastor Ted Wilson shares with you 7 action items that you and I can take to bring about significant #change through the Lord's power. 1. We can #pray. God will always hear your prayers. 2. We can be #faithful. Truly, no one has ever regretted being faithful to God, through the power of His grace! 3. We can do good. The Bible tells us very clearly in Romans 12:21, “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” 4. We can #love. In 2 Timothy 1:7 we read, "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” Notice the wonderful promise here—God Himself gives us love, and power, and a sound mind! 5. We can study the #Bible, accepting it as the true Word of God. “Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path,” we read in Psalm 119:105. 6. We can uplift #Jesus. Let’s look for ways every day to uplift Jesus in our own lives, and to others. And, number 7. We can wait on the #Lord. The Psalmist tells us in Psalm 27, "I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!” (verses 13, 14). When we are connected to Jesus, we are never truly helpless, and no circumstance is truly hopeless. We can always pray. We can be faithful through God’s grace. We can do good. We can love. We can study the Bible, and uplift Jesus. And, we can wait on the Lord. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dkr0MCWA2eg

Inspiring South African Mission Stories and Growth
Southern Africa is rich with poignant mission stories. In this podcast episode, ESDA editors Dr. David Trim and Dr. Dragoslava Santrac unlock amazing stories again. Together with them are Dr. Passmore Hachalinga and Gideon Reyneke, editors from the Southern African-Indian Ocean Division. The gospel in Africa
It's fascinating to know that Seventh-day Adventism's history in the area did not start with missionaries. Dr. Hachalinga shares the incredible story: It began with a young, faithful Christian farmer, whose farm has diamonds bringing his family great fortune. He fell ill and claimed James 5:14-15 for healing. His recuperation strengthened his enthusiasm to share God's Word, which led his brother to challenge him to keep the Bible Sabbath. Astonished, he sought for the biblical truth and accepted the dare. His name was Pieter Wessels. The coming of the African missionaries
Pieter thought he was alone in keeping the seventh-day Sabbath. So he was shocked and pleased to know that there were around 30,000 Sabbath-keepers around the world. With a friend's suggestion, he wrote to the Church headquarters in Battle Creek, Michigan, to send missionaries, all at his expense. With the missionaries, the church grew in the area. Telling stories of generosity
It is also remarkable to note that the Wessels family are known for their love offerings for God. Not only did they assist the struggling church in Southern Africa, but globally. The monuments of their financial assistance still stand today. These include Helderberg College, Solusi Mission, Avondale, and Sydney Adventist Hospital. Church history also testifies how the family also directly helped Ellen White when she was in Australia. Read more about the inspiring testimony of Pieter Wessels here: https://encyclopedia.adventist.org/article?id=ACDF&highlight=peter|wessels. Other stories from Africa
Pastor Reyneke also shares tales about the graveyard at Solusi University, where missionary men, women, and even children lay. Most of them struggled with deadly malaria. Indeed, the Adventist church needs to heed to God's calling found in Psalm 78:3-8. The online Adventist encyclopedia tells and preserves God's beautiful messages, stories, blessings, and dealings alive. It plainly shows God in real life.
