AMEN!

A couple of my story scouts spotted this piece out of St. Augustine, Florida—and I think it’s a perfect one for the big people (i.e., older than children). Two 17-year-olds—Tyler Smith and Heather Brown—were enjoying senior skip-day to the max a week ago. Students at Christ’s Church Academy and soaking up the sun, the two teens lazily floated just offshore at Vilano Beach.

A Wandering Aramean was My Father

So who was your father? “A wandering Aramean”? Most of our forefathers (if you go back far enough in our family trees) were “wandering Arameans” of sorts, weren’t they? Exiles, nomads, immigrants, transnationals, wanders, et al. Until today we are a world of wanderers’ children.

Agriculture Continues at Andrews University

With the closure of the 111-year old Dairy last year, many were concerned that would be the end of Agriculture at Andrews. But there is Good News - the former Dairy facilities are being repurposed into an Agriculture Education Center to continue and improve the education of our students in animal husbandry and horticulture while emphasizing good stewardship of the natural resources our Creator has entrusted to us. To learn more, please check out the website for the Department of Sustainable Agriculture, www.andrews.edu/agriculture.

"In Exile: Cadences of Home" Begins Next Sabbath

Because Pioneer is "in exile" from its familiar surroundings and spiritual home for the late spring and summer, our new worship/ pulpit theme in the Howard Performing Arts Center will focus on what are called "diasporic morality tales"—dramatic Bible narratives of believers who lived "in exile" among those who did not believe. From these stories both familiar and unfamiliar, what lessons can we draw from their faithful though often conflicted lives? While we're renovating God's House this summer, let's continue to renovate our hearts for Him. Beginning May 11.
