WELCOME TO PIONEER This holiday season brings so many opportunities to spend, give, and receive. It is easy to get caught up in the shopping frenzy. Our calendars are filled with one celebration after another. And our tummies are full of sweet, savory, and seasonal delights. And it seems that these holidays also present opportunities to bring wayward friends together, take on new goals, and evaluate the direction of our lives. This morning you SEASONS OF LIFE are part of a community that celebrates a weekly holiday, Sabbath. This time invites us to share in God s goodness. We have the opportunity to do what most are inspired to do during this holiday sprint. So every week that you come here we invite you to spend hugs liberally, give joy abundantly and eagerly receive the grace of Christ through all seasons of life. Welcome to Sabbath! José Bourget A FEAST OF GIVING We would like to thank our pathfinders for preparing 130 food baskets for families in our community. More than 60 pathfinders plus volunteers from the community helped to deliver the baskets on Saturday afternoon. We pray the this small gift on our part will bring joy to some families in need this holiday season. (Photo taken by Nick Wolfer). 2 PIONEER MEMORIAL CHURCH

GUEST EDITORIAL BY SILVANO BARBOSA T hey were extremely important in the spreading of Christianity, but failed to keep in their respective churches, currently, the strength and vitality that pushed them towards the farthest corners of this planet: the Waldensians, the Moravians and the Mission Societies. The Waldensians became known for their firm attachment to the Word of God and strong emphasis on purity of life. Many scholars trace their origin back to the apostolic times. But their strongest missionary accomplishments took place under the leadership of Pedro Waldo, a wealthy merchant of the city of Lyons, who became a believer about the year 1160. Hundreds of years before the Reformation they possessed the Bible in manuscript in their native tongue; and in the solitude of Pra-del-Tor, an isolated gorge in Piedmont, the Waldensian missionaries memorized the Scriptures. They were submitted to an extensive training program in their college, the College of Barba, for a period ranging from one year to six years. During this time they learned by heart the Gospels of Matthew and John, and also learned to speak Latin, Romane and Italian. From there, they went out to visit all the homes in their respective district. They traveled in pairs under the guise of a secular profession. 200 YEARS LATER WE ARE A CHURCH THAT BY ITS OWN NAME ANNOUNCES THE BELIEF IN THE SECOND COMING. The Waldensians spread their message in France, Italy, Germany, and Bohemia. They went as far as Spain and Poland. The Moravians are recognized as the oldest Protestant church and are pioneers in many aspects of the Christian Mission. They were the first Protestants to accept the missionary task as a church body. Their number was never more than a few hundred in Herrnhut, Germany, and yet, they became one of the most creative and zealous Christian movements in history. The beginnings of the Moravian missionary outreach occurred in 1732 under the leadership of Nicolaus Von Zinzendorf. From that time on, they acted upon the concept that to be a Christian is to be involved in mission to the whole world. During a period of twenty-eight years, the Moravians sent missionaries to twenty-eight countries and one out of every thirteen or so persons in the community went elsewhere as missionaries. By the time of Zinzendorf s death in 1760, no less than 226 people had been sent as missionaries and a few years later they would reach all the continents. By the end of the 18th century, however, a new form of mission structure, devoted explicitly to foreign mission, was being formed and came to be defined as Mission Societies. The Baptist pastor William 4 PIONEER MEMORIAL CHURCH

Carey is the pioneer of this era in mission. Desiring to arouse the interest of other Christians in missionary work and refuting arguments against the impossibilities of sending missionaries to distant lands, Carey published in 1792 an 87-page booklet and a few months later he founded the Baptist Mission Society. In the following years hundreds of similar structures were established and thousands of missionaries were sent out to different parts of the world. The spreading of Protestantism in Asia, Africa and Latin America is considered a direct result of the missionary work of the mission societies. The sad part of this beautiful story is that these movements failed to keep the vision that pushed them towards the furthest corners of this planet and enabled them to endure with resignation and confidence the most terrible forms of persecution and death. As a result, they became irrelevant from the missionary viewpoint. Last year, the president of a 215-year-old mission society in Switzerland told me that one of the goals for her next term is to have Christian missionaries! What differentiates Adventism from these movements is the fact that over the past 150 years we ve been keeping our vision. We are a church that by its own name announces the belief in the second coming. Preaching the good news of Jesus soon return, in connection with proclaiming the everlasting gospel as a way of preparing the world for this event, is Adventism s antidote against irrelevance. As long as we keep this vision we will know what our presence in this planet is all about. Let s get to work! Silvano Barbosa is a pastor doing his PhD in Missiology here at Andrews University.

6 PIONEER MEMORIAL CHURCH Jesus THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON IN A STUDENT S LIFE

FEATURE ARTICLE Why is it important that college students have a close relationship with Jesus? BY NEPHTALIE EUGENE BEING FULL OF FAITH IS ONE THING; HOWEVER, IT S NOT JUST ABOUT SAYING WE BELIEVE WE HAVE TO ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING TO SHOW HOW MUCH WE BELIEVE. I f I had been asked that question my freshman year, my response would have been a vague: Because college students need Jesus in order to be successful in college. However, as a senior, I realize that there is so much more to it than that. I know now that having a relationship with Jesus should focus not only on what He can do for me, but mostly on my willingness to be obedient to Him. The reward is so much greater simply because I get to experience the depth of His affection in an intimate and personal way. The first reason that I think we, as students, need a personal relationship with Jesus is that during college a lot of people struggle with identity and finding their purpose in life. Oftentimes, our identity is affected by what we believe the most important people in our lives think of us. This is why college students must make sure that Jesus is the most important person in their lives: because He will love them unconditionally. The second reason is to help grow our faith. Jesus is the focus of our faith, reliance and hope. Without faith it s impossible to please God because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him (Hebrews 1 1:6). Being full of faith is one thing; however, it s not just about saying we believe we have to actually do something to show how much we believe. Seeking a closer relationship with Jesus is one of many ways that we may apply our faith. In my humble opinion, I truly believe that nothing is more valuable than knowing God. Things may get hard or lonely throughout the journey and others may persuade you to search for wisdom elsewhere, but there is only one Source of ultimate Truth. Jesus patiently waits to reveal Himself to you. Nephtalie Eugene is a senior Religion Major. NOVEMBER 29, 2014 7

He had killed two lion-like heroes of Moab. He also had gone down and killed a lion in the midst of a pit on a snowy day. And he killed an Egyptian, a spectacular man. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand; so he went down to him with a staff, wrested the spear out of the Egyptian s hand, and killed him with his own spear. These things Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did, and won a name among three mighty men. He was more honored than the thirty, but he did not attain to the first three. And David appointed him over his guard. 8 PIONEER MEMORIAL CHURCH

Too common? Perhaps you wish to make your own supplemental list. However, when recounting things for which to be thankful, any human list is incomplete, don t you think? We have a family Thanksgiving tradition: naming at least one thing starting with each letter of the alphabet for giving thanks. Even that list of 26 or more items falls short. Regarding Thanks Be to God, the simple melody by Australian composer Mary Brahe (1884-1956) graces the list in this song s poem. She is perhaps best known for her song Bless This House.

NEIGHBOR TO NEIGHBOR BY REBECCA COLEMAN LAYETTE DRIVE E very year Neighbor to Neighbor puts together Layettes for new and expecting mothers. Neighbor to Neighbor partners with six different agencies, including Maternal Infant Health Program, to get the Layettes into the hands of needy mothers in Berrien County. Layettes are also given to expecting Neighbor to Neighbor clients. Layettes include receiving blankets, baby blankets, booties, scarves, hats and baby clothes. Sometimes these Layettes are the only baby gifts that the mother ever receives. THIS SERVICE THAT YOU PERFORM IS NOT ONLY SUPPLYING THE NEEDS OF THE LORD S PEOPLE BUT IS ALSO OVERFLOWING IN MANY EXPRESSIONS OF THANKS TO GOD (2 CORINTHIANS 9:12). Last year, Neighbor to Neighbor gave out over 400 Layettes. In order to ensure that new mothers are equipped with basic necessities for their babies arrivals, Neighbor to Neighbor is accepting new or gently used donations towards these packages. These can be dropped off at any time to Neighbor to Neighbor. ACCEPTABLE DONATIONS: Sleepers (0-6 months only) Long-sleeved onesies (0-6 months only) Receiving blankets Diapers Bibs UPCOMING EVENTS In January 2015 Neighbor to Neighbor will be hosting a food drive in partnership with Apple Valley.
