Workshop for Young People
At the request of the Pacific Regional Secretary, Bro. Rolly Dumaguit, two training seminars were recently held by Bro. John Lausevic, the Australasian Union Welfare Department Director and also member of the General Conference Welfare Department Committee. The trip was funded through generous donations from brothers and sisters around Australia and the United States.
Fifteen energetic workers distributed 20,000 flyers all across the city of Kragujevac, Serbia—along with 450 posters and radio and television spots. Then, despite the fact that we were told that not many come to such outreach programs anymore, on the very first night we were blessed with over 100 visitors to hear Dragan Ivanov give the first presentation on How to Eat Healthy. About half of the people had come because of the flyers and half from the posters. Only one came from the TV and radio ads.
On Saturday night, June 7, 2014, a Graduation Ceremony was held for the four month missionary training program conducted by Elim Missionary College in Sydney, New South Wales. Students participating in this year’s program were Ryan Belu (USA), David Dumaguit (Australia), Denise Gutierrez (USA), Melissa Mota (Brazil) and Leonardo Rojas (Spain).
We wish the best for each of the students and trust that they will be a blessing to the church wherever they go as a result of their experience with EMC.
