On September 13-21, 2016 a canvassing seminar was held in Papua New Guinea.

On September 13-21, 2016 a canvassing seminar was held in Papua New Guinea at the initiative of Brother Ben Thiel, the president of the South Pacific Islands Union. We had over 35 participants who completed the course, including a two days first-hand canvassing experience.

 

We went out to one main town and 12 villages, and a good number of books were sold. As a result, some individuals expressed the desire to visit the church, and a lecture was given to a group of 500 high school students after the principal was impressed with the books we were offering.

Viruses are the culprits behind the common cold, influenza, and many ears, nose, and throat infections. In fact, there are approximately 200 viruses that cause influenza (flu) and influenza-like illnesses (ILI).

This study guide is to be used during the afternoon study portion of October 1st's Sabbath program.

This study should be conducted on Sabbath afternoon with the entire church assembled. The seats can be accommodated in order to facilitate discussion.

 

It should be clear from the beginning that the activity is a directed, interactive study and NOT A DEBATE, since there are some controversial issues to be discussed.

 

For best results, we suggest the following:

Continuing our theme of prevention and awareness as a worthwhile cure, we end this series on cancer awareness talking about three cancers that can affect women everywhere.

As we have stressed in other articles, being diligent in our lifestyle is key to health. However, how can we keep diseases at bay if we aren't aware of them? Below we lay out three forms of cancer that affect women all over the world every year. We talk about what they are, certain symptoms, as well as detection options for each.
