Thu, 17 Apr 2025 17:11:07 +0000 2025 eHuddle at Andrews University http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/67171 <div> On Tuesday, January 7, during a vision-setting week of prayer, Arteaga and his leaders experienced three blackouts from heavy winds. The next morning, they awoke to “images that the city we love, our mission field, our home, was on fire,” Arteaga shared at the 2025 eHuddle—an evangelism and leadership think tank hosted by the North American Division (NAD) Ministerial Association from Feb. 24 to 26 at Andrews University in Berrien Springs, Michigan.</div> More than 400 leaders, theology and seminary students, and faculty listened intently as the story unfolded. As wildfires swept Los Angeles, forcing evacuations, two members sought refuge at White Memorial. With no plan in place, leaders opened their doors to evacuees. Prayer meetings continued, a constant plea on their lips: God, use us and amaze us. And He did. ... This was one of many powerful testimonies shared at the 10th annual eHuddle, held in English on Feb. 24 and 25, and in Spanish on Feb. 26, reaching thousands viaFacebook and YouTube. Online viewers also enjoyed a behind-the-scenes Q&A with all speakers.  <<< Read the full story at the North American Division <a href="https://www.nadadventist.org/news/beyond-pews-2025-ehuddle-calls-church-greater-impact">site</a> >>> Thu, 17 Apr 2025 17:09:42 +0000 AU Symphony Orchestra: WAUS Thank You Concert http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/65256 Program:  Rhosymedre—Vaughan Williams (orch.

When they saw Lazarus coming out of the grave, they did not even realize the foreshadowing of what would happen on the Passover weekend. However, the person who walked out of the grave on Passover weekend would never die again. He is called the Firstborn of the Dead, holding the keys of Hades and Death, and everyone who believes in Jesus will have an everlasting life.   Thu, 17 Apr 2025 16:42:35 +0000
