Our approach to their spiritual maturation must be intentional and strategic.

Barna will discuss why ministry to children matters; what the Bible says about raising kids; common but ineffective parenting strategies; and the practices of effective parents. Based on research among young adults who have grown up to serve the Lord, and interviews with their parents.

Based on his research among individuals who have such a way of interpreting reality, and insights from the churches that are effectively assisting people in the development of a biblical worldview, Barna will describe America’s worldviews and how churches can become more strategically involved in facilitating a biblical worldview.

Because Journey is quite large, ranging from 15-30 each school year with a steady flow of new and old members, getting together to make a live album will cost a lot of money. With your help we cannot only fund the album, but make the cost of bringing everyone together for this joyous occasion much easier. Your support will go to fund all the different costs it takes to house and feed Journey members as well as pay for the production and duplication of the actual CD. FINANCIAL BREAKDOWN We are estimating a group of about 100 people will be involved with the live album. We have set a long weekend in October for fellowship and practice. The cost is based on those 100 people and the 5 days they will be here. Food - $2,000 Housing - $2,000 Transportation - $1,000 CD production and duplication - $3,500 Total: $8,500 THANK YOU From the bottom of our hearts to yours thank you for supporting Journey. We will keep you updated on the status of our fundraising and send you peeks into what our group is up to. God bless, Journey FAQ Have a question?

Agenda :: Andrews University 1 of 54 About Andrews Academics http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/category/Campus+News Attending Andrews Life@Andrews Services Search Showing Category: Campus News GO 1 2 3 Next Friday, September 21, 2012 Open House Celebrating SPLAD's New Suite Andrews University will celebrate the Department of Speech-Language Pathology & Audiology’s move to new quarters in Bell Hall with an open house and ribbon cutting ceremony on Thursday, Sept. 27, 2012. The open house, which includes complimentary hearing screenings, will be held from 3:30–7 p.m. with the ribbon cutting ceremony taking place at 4 p.m. Students, clients, faculty and members of any professional and referral healthcare organizations are invited to attend. This is also the first official event for the new Andrews University School of Health Professions. The expanded and renovated location in Bell Hall provides the growing department with room to expand their educational vision, programs and Speech & Hearing Clinic. The remodeled suite features new state-of-the-art sound booths for complete hearing evaluations, and a new lab monitoring room for the Speech & Hearing Clinic. The clinic is open to the public, offering hearing and speech evaluations, and speech therapy. It is the only clinic in a 60-mile radius offering central auditory processing testing, which evaluates how the ear and brain are working together to use auditory information. “Our former space was cramped at 700 sq. ft., but the new area is a spacious 2,800 sq. ft. There is room to grow and we have taken initial steps toward a master’s degree in speech-language pathology,” says Darah Regal, chair. “Over the last five years our enrollment has increased steadily from 25 to 65 majors in 2012. We’re delighted and impressed as we meet this year’s freshmen, with their animated curiosity to start learning and growing in their chosen field.” With their new facilities, the department is beginning to expand. The current program offers a bachelor’s and a minor in speech-language pathology and audiology. The department’s proposal for a master’s program has received approval from the Andrews University Program Development Review Committee (PDRC) and the Graduate Council, and is being reviewed by Provost Andrea Luxton. The department is working on a proposal for master’s program accreditation from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.

Category: Campus News Thursday, September 20, 2012 Campus Ministries Goes Mobile The Office of Campus Ministries has gone mobile! Their mobile offices are a new initiative to bring their ministry directly to the students of Andrews University. From Monday-Thursday of the weeks of September 10-20, the chaplains and their support staff wheeled a cart loaded with an electric teapot and an array of tea, apple cider, and hot chocolate and set up camp in one of the campus lobbies. Beside their cart they placed a large sign announcing their motto, “Keep Calm and Put the Kettle On,”—a phrase history students will recognize from its similarity to the World War II British catchphrase, “Keep Calm and Carry On.” “It’s an easy way of saying, pull up a seat and let’s talk about something serious and wonderful– Jesus in your life,” says Japhet De Oliveira, University chaplain. Each day, Campus Ministries set-up in a new area, traveling to Buller Hall, Nethery Hall, Architecture North Studio, Physical Therapy Building, Harrigan Hall Main Lobby, Bell Hall, Chan Shun Hall and the Seminary. By going to the students, they have the opportunity to meet and talk with students who may not normally spend much time in the Campus Center where Campus Ministries is located. “We want to be where the people are,” says Jose Bourget, chaplain. “We get quite a bit of faculty, staff and students who come to our offices, but there are so many more that we will now be able to make connections with by being where they are.” De Oliveira became impressed with the importance of going into the community under the influence of one of his mentors. He realized that in order to connect with members, he needed to see them outside of church. “I can’t preach, teach or connect unless I have a pulse for the community,” he says. So far the outreach has been well received. Some students who had never heard of the Office of Campus 9/23/2012 7:03 PM Agenda :: Andrews University 4 of 54 http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/category/Campus+News Ministries or never had an opportunity to meet the chaplains were able to interact with them. Many people expressed their appreciation for the chaplains’ efforts. One department chair even called the office to ensure they would be coming to her department. “We have had some great conversations with students we would have never met,” says De Oliveira. “Insight into their journey. Clarity on their needs.” The chaplains intend to repeat the mobile office tour again later in the semester, as well in selected other locations on individual days. They hope those they meet will be encouraged by their encounter to come to the Office of Campus Ministries for longer discussions. “I think it’s a really good idea,” says Christina Dunn, a junior animal science major. “I was blessed.” The mobile offices are one implementation of the new Faith Development program, which includes three elements: Program to Presence, Theory to Tangible, and Control to Creative. The mobile office is an initiative of the first element, Program to Presence. With this initiative, the chaplains hope to make Campus Ministries a more palpable presence on campus and in the lives of students, faculty and staff. Some other initiatives the Office of Campus Ministries is undertaking include submitting regular articles to the Student Movement, using live texting during Chapels and promoting the availability of the chaplains for discussion, as well as regularly walking around campus to connect with students. If you are interested in having the Chaplains’ mobile office come to your area, email University Chaplain De Oliveira at japhet@andrews.edu. Category: Campus News Eat Local Challenge Is On Tuesday, Sept. 25 Can we feed hundreds an entire meal made of only locally sourced food? At Andrews University’s Dining Services, the answer is yes, we can. On Tuesday, Sept. 25, from 11 a.m.–2:30 p.m., Dining Services will take part in Bon Appétit Management Company’s “Eat Local Challenge” by serving up lunch made entirely from ingredients sourced within 150 miles of Berrien Springs, Mich., with a vast majority of the ingredients sourced from the Andrews University Farm. The Eat Local Challenge is open to the public. Regular lunch prices apply, $7.75 (plus tax) for all you-care-to-eat. View the menu at the link below the photo. The local farms and suppliers sourced for the “Eat Local Challenge” include: Andrews University Farm (Berrien Springs, Mich.); Leduc Blueberries (Paw Paw, Mich.); Michigan Sugar Company (Bay City, Mich.), Total Health Inc. (Buchanan, Mich.); Todd Griener Farms (Hart, Mich.) Windmill Island (Holland, Mich.); Guggisberg (Middlebury, Ind.); Rosewood Acres (Lansing, Mich.), Windmill Island (Holland, Mich.); Zeeland Foods (Zeeland, Mich.); Country Life (Paw Paw, Mich.); Carlson-Arbogast Farms (Lansing, Mich.) and Dave Pagel Farm (Berrien Springs, Mich.). Additionally, the breads were all locally baked by Apple Valley Bakery (Berrien Springs, Mich.). This is the first year Gil Bell, owner of Total Health Inc., in Buchanan, has supplied produce for the event. “Eating local actually helps produce a much higher quality nutrient value in our food. The produce doesn’t have to travel across the county, losing nutrients with age, or be sprayed with preservatives in order to extend shelf life.” This marks the third year Andrews University’s Dining Services has participated in the Eat Local Challenge. It is just one way Dining Services is accepting Andrews University President Niels-Erik Andreasen’s challenge to make Andrews the healthiest university in the United States. “Eating local has become a mainstream of our 9/23/2012 7:03 PM Agenda :: Andrews University 5 of 54 http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/category/Campus+News culture. It’s more popular than it used to be. But having an opportunity to eat a locally sourced meal is a different story,” says Jonathan Mark Daniels, general manager of Dining Services at Andrews University. “We want everyone to come and experience not just a component piece of a meal that is local, but an entire meal. We are taking ‘eating local’ from a conversation to a reality.” One of the new locally sourced foods for this year is organic tofu from Rosewood Acres in Lansing, Mich. “Our student body loves tofu. They’ll choose it over, or along with, their eggs—scrambled eggs and tofu, or adding tofu to their omelets,” says Linda Briengar, executive chef at Dining Services. “Another great local source is our own Andrews Farm. They are providing things such as eggplant, butternut squash, yellow squash, carnival squash, acorn squash, basil, cilantro, parsley and sage. Andrews Farm is also providing us with what I’m calling ‘heirloom peppers,’ which includes four different kinds of peppers: pika, pueblo, Cheyenne and jalapeño.” Bon Appétit Management, the onsite restaurant company that manages Andrews University’s Office of Dining Services, has over 400 Bon Appétit restaurants and cafés across the country participating in the Eat Local Challenge. As part of their partnerships with college and corporate campuses, Bon Appétit works to educate communities about the value of low-carbon diets and local purchasing, and the connection between food and climate change. Bon Appétit has been managing Andrews University Dining Services since June 2010.

This fall semester, the School of Architecture, Art & Design is taking the lead to chart a course for the next 10 years of campus development. Everyone is invited to participate! This project is being led by the Campus Design Studio from the School of Architecture, Art & Design.

By RALPH HEIBUTZKI - H-P Correspondent | 0 0 comments BERRIEN SPRINGS - With four different institutions represented, the logistics of rehearsing can get a little bit complicated for members of the American Piano Quintet. Tweet However, for musicians used to performing at a high level, the solution is simpler than it might seem, in violinist Carla Trynchuk's perspective. "Obviously, when we prepare for this, there's a lot of individual work that goes on, there's a lot of core study, so when we get together things are just ready to fall in place," Trynchuk says by telephone from her Berrien Springs home. "Then we work on the interpretive details - what we want to bring out in the music, (and) the types of conservations we have between the instruments. That's the kind of thing we look to do when we get together." For pianist Chi Yong Yun, everything's about refining the individual nuances of each piece as the actual concert date draws closer. "The word that comes to mind is, 'a lot of discipline' - I started playing at an early age, when I heard my sister practicing, and I started playing what I heard," Yun says. "I was around 3 or 4." Trynchuk and Yun both teach at Andrews University, where they'll also perform Saturday as part of the American Piano Quintet, whose other members are Rudolf Haken (violin), Jeffrey Lastrapes (cello) and Renee Skerik (viola). Haken is on the University of Illinois's music faculty, while Skerik is a viola professor at Texas Tech University and a violist for the Botticelli String Quartet. Lastrapes is a former Oklahoma State University faculty member who recently released a CD of sonatas by Rachmaninoff and Chopin. Since 1996, he's also served on the cello and chamber music faculty at Interlochen Center for the Arts and is an assistant professor of cello at Texas Tech. Events Cale September 2 Su Mo Tu We T "I'm looking forward to performing with these wonderful colleagues. We have lots of different backgrounds represented, and yet we all do very much the same thing," Trynchuk says. "We all perform a lot and we all teach a lot. These are our dual passions." The program will consist of three works, including "Piano Quintet in F Minor, Op. 34," by Johannes Brahms, and Haken's composition, "Tao 1 of 3 9/23/2012 7:07 PM Instrumental conversations - The Herald Palladium : Features http://www.heraldpalladium.com/features/instrumental-conversations/arti...

After a brief intermission, the quintet will close its performance with Antonin Dvorak's "Piano Quintet in A Major, Op. 81." today's even browse submit Trnychuk expects the Haken piece to represent a musical peak of the program, even though she won't be playing on it herself. "We went through a number of ideas (for the program). We wanted a couple of piano quintets that would be contrasting," Trynchuk says. "Brahms, of course, is rich and dark in color and the Czech composer (Dvorak) is an audience pleaser. The most unusual work (of the night) will be Rudolf's - it's a very cool work." "The pieces that we're going to perform cover a wide range of emotion, between the instruments," Yun agrees. "With classical music, it's something that takes a lot of discipline and a lot of training. It's not something you're going pick up in the period of a week or a month." While she's looking forward to playing all the pieces, Yun is especially excited about the Brahms selection. "His writing for piano is very complex - it's challenging, but it's musically fulfilling," she says. The quintet's members also will give a master class to Andrews' string instrument students at 3:30 p.m. Friday, in Buller Hall's Newbold Auditorium. Haken, Skerik and Lastrapes are expected to lead this endeavor, which is open to the public as well, Trynchuk says. "A master class is when you have students perform, and have the master teacher work with the student," she says.

SUBSCRIBE NOW SEPT. 20, 2012 PRINT THIS PAGE SEND US A COMMEN AR HOME LOGIN NOW First major title from an Adventist publishing house on the subject (Posted September 19, 2012) ndrews University Press has just released the first major book from a Seventh-day Adventist publishing house addressing the complex issues surrounding homosexuality and Adventist life and faith. ABOUT THE REVIE IN THIS ISSUE ONLINE ARCHIVE Niels-Erik Andreasen, president of Andrews University in Berrien Springs, Michigan, and chair of the Andrews University Press board, said the topic of this book is timely and needed. “Recent developments in our faith community, religious organizations, American politics, and secular society require careful thought on this sensitive subject. Andrews University is pleased to help sort out some of these issues by bringing together a range of perspectives on this subject within our church.” PRINT INDEX Titled Homosexuality, Marriage, and the Church: Biblical, Counseling, and Religious Liberty Issues, the nearly 600-page book was released in early August. It is a collection of 14 major essays on a range of topics, and an additional six personal testimonies from individuals who have struggled with homosexuality in their personal lives. The content of the book, including the testimonies, is material largely based on presentations at a conference on the same subject held at Andrews University and sponsored by various entities of the Adventist Church in October 2009. CONTACT US READER RESPONS PARTNERS PAGE FREE NEWSLETTE ADVENTIST WORL KIDSVIEW SEARCH “Much as it might like to, the church can no longer evade questions about homosexuality and same-sex marriage,” says Nicholas P. Miller, lead editor of the work, along with Roy E. Gane and H. Peter Swanson, all of the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary at Andrews. “Society, with increasing stridency, is forcing Christians to confront these topics,” Miller says. Miller points to the several states whose legislatures have enacted same-sex marriage provisions, sometimes against the convictions of their own citizens. He notes that this fall at least two states, Maryland and Washington, will have referendums on election ballots, initiated by citizens seeking to overturn the same-sex marriage laws recently enacted. “Consider the strange controversy and apparent outrage that erupted when the owner of a national fast-food chain recently expressed his support for traditional marriage,” Miller said. “It was the same position held until very recently by the president of the United States. And the media-driven reaction is an indication of how efforts are being made to shift public sentiment on this issue. Meanwhile, a film documentary affirming the gay lifestyle among Adventists is being heavily promoted by some within the church. Through all of this Adventists must have a clear understanding of all the issues at stake, and they are significant.” Ronald Knott, director of Andrews University Press, notes that along with the biblical and religious liberty issues, the book makes a passionate case for the highest level of pastoral love and support for those Christians who, he said, “may have been lured down a dangerous spiritual path by charming but false arguments from Scripture and political history, coming from outside and inside the church.” Following a preface and general introduction, various essays and articles are divided into four sections. The first addresses the Old and New Testament biblical material on homosexuality, with articles by Gane, Richard Davidson, and 9/23/2012 7:08 PM Adventist Review : 26 CN: Andrews University Press Releases Book on ... 2 of 2 http://www.adventistreview.org/article/5680/archives/issue-2012-1526/2... Miroslav Kis, all of Andrews, and Robert A. J. Gagnon of Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. The second section addresses legal and religious liberty issues, with essays by Miller, Alan J. Reinach from the Pacific Union Conference, Gerald Chipeur, a partner with the Canadian law firm Miller Thompson LLP, Scot Zentner from Cal State, San Bernadino, and Gary Wood from Andrews University. The counseling section features articles by Stanton Jones of Wheaton College, Mark Yarhouse of Regent University, Carlos Fayard of Loma Linda University, and Inge Anderson, founder of a ministry to homosexuals. The fourth section includes personal testimonies from several Christians who have lived and struggled with homosexuality. An appendix reproduces the various official statements relevant to homosexuality issued through the years by the Adventist Church. In addition to his teaching responsibility as associate professor of church history at Andrews, Miller is also director of the university’s International Religious Liberty Institute. On October 6 the institute will sponsor a daylong forum on the political, religious, and social issues regarding same-sex marriage. The event will be held at the Spencerville Seventh-day Adventist Church in Spencerville, Maryland. The forum, planned in the context of Maryland’s ballot referendum to overturn the state’s same-sex marriage law, will draw attention to the issues and to the new book, and will feature panel discussions and a sermon on Adventists and social issues by Bill Knott, editor and executive publisher of Adventist Review and Adventist World magazines. Homosexuality, Marriage, and the Church is available through Adventist Book Centers, and online at Amazon.com and Andrews University Press. Andrews University Press is the only regularly established academic publishing house to serve the Seventh-day Adventist Church worldwide. —information supplied by Andrews University Subscriber Andrews: Welcome Menu | My Profile Copyright © 2012, Adventist Review.

Hopkins runs literacy program at Berrien jail Story Comments Print Font Size: Posted: Monday, September 17, 2012 6:00 am 0 comments For many years Aubrey Hopkins has worked in professions that help families and children. Now, he is in his third year teaching literacy classes for inmates in the Berrien County jail. 0 Tweet The 54-year-old Berrien Springs resident grew up in Macon, Ga., attended Oakwood University in Huntsville, Ala., and has a background in social work. He worked in the alternative education program at Coloma schools and in the Benton Harbor school system. In addition to teaching literacy in the jail, Hopkins is an examiner for the General Educational Development program, which allows people to get the equivalent of a high school diploma. The literacy and GED programs have no connection. Herald-Palladium Staff Writer Scott Aiken recently talked with Hopkins about his work in the jail. Reaching and teaching Photo by Don Campbell / H-P staff Aubrey Hopkins, a graduate student in school counseling at Andrews University, has been How did you get involved in teaching prisoners? teaching literacy classes at the Berrien County Jail in St. Joseph for the past three years. Buy this photo My involvement goes back probably about 20 years. I worked in a children's facility. I worked as a juvenile probation officer. I worked with families and children, with child abuse and neglect. And I often wondered, where along the continuum can we actually help these children, because in many cases they were so angry because of the things that happened to them during their childhood. I thought, maybe on the adult end, when they are adults and more mature, that maybe something could be done. It was from that perspective that I involved myself into the local jail and teaching the literacy program. Is it common to see people in jail who are illiterate or nearly so? Yes. I taught special education at Benton Harbor High School for about five years. Every once in a while I would have a student show up and they would be in the 11th or 12th grade and tell me they couldn't read. Submit Your N We're interes hearin about news in o community.

I couldn't quite understand it at the time, but after talking to them I found in some cases they moved every six months. And so they just missed different elements of reading. And because they were quiet students they were passed along. It was from that point that I learned about the need for literacy (instruction). Do the people who sign up for instruction tend to be good students? That is, are they serious about learning? Submit Events Cale September 2 Yes. Sgt. (Chris) Aungst screens the students before I ever get them. He sends the most qualified and the best students, students who are eager to learn, students who want to change their direction in life. I can't say, in the three years since I've been doing the literacy class, that I've gotten more than one student that we had to dismiss or delete from the class. Most of the students who come are very eager to learn. They're willing to challenge themselves, and they're willing to work through the obstacles that come from having literacy deficiencies. Su Mo Tu We T today's even browse submit People are in jail for no more than a year and often for shorter periods. Does that allow students enough time to make progress? That's kind of difficult to answer because some students make progress. For other students who are starting below second-grade reading level it's going to take a lot more than the allotted time in which they're in the jail. We do the best we can with the time with English as a second language, using those skills that are applicable, and also with Literacy America. One of our favorite times of the day is when we read The Herald-Palladium. I'm not sure of the reading level for the newspaper, but in many cases it has been a starting point for our students. They're interested in the local news, and so it works out for us. Classes are twice a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays, between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. What are some of the rewards and frustrations of teaching prisoners? Actually there have been very few frustrations. A few of the prisoners who are anxious and have not fully adjusted to being in prison bring that anxiety into the classroom, and sometimes it frustrates the learning process. So we have to deal with their issues before we move on. The rewards are incredible. To see them beginning to learn, want to learn, want to acquire skills, go to higher education institutions, making the effort, putting in an (application) for financial aid, pursuing their GED and passing the GED. In most cases I rarely see any of the students once they are released. I have seen a few. I saw one at Lake Michigan College who's now enrolled. I talked to others who attributed the class to an awakening for them. They realize, "I can do something in life, I can make something of myself, and if I apply certain principles I will move further in life." This is a great project that Sheriff (Paul) Bailey has instituted, and I thank him for making the opportunity available.

Powered by Posted: Wed 11:36 PM, Sep 12, 2012 Updated: Wed 11:49 PM, Sep 12, 2012 Back to Home Andrews hosts electronics recycling event < Folks from all across Michiana traveled to Berrien Springs Wednesday to help the environment, and get rid of all the electronic clutter piling up in their homes. Andrews University, along with Green Earth Recycling, hosted their annual recycling event Wednesday evening. The four-hour drop-off gave community members and area businesses a way to get rid of all their old gizmos and gadgets the right way. People brought out computers, tools, TV's and even curling irons to dispose of on campus. Some came from as far away as Elkhart just to make sure their unwanted devices do not end up in the landfill. “We just take recycling very seriously. We try to do what we can, when we can, and I've been waiting for a major drop-off,” said Marian Seevers, Elkhart resident. “We have been setting aside computer monitors, old TV's, basically anything with a cord, and it has been stockpiling for several months, and today was the day to just load it up and bring it in.” If you missed out, the college will be holding another e-recycling event in mid-April of 2012.

The discussion is led by Jerome Thayer, Ph.D., on Sabbath, September 22, 2012, at 3:30 p.m., in the Garber Amphitheater of Chan Shun Hall on the campus of Andrews University. All are welcome to join in the discussion. About the Topic Seventh-day Adventist educators have long maintained that their students achievement test scores (Iowa Test of Basic Skills scores), pass rates, and college matriculation percentages consistently outpace most public school and even other private school systems. Cognitive Genesis is the first division-wide (United States, Canada, and Bermuda) study to assess Adventist academics in elementary and secondary schools. Working together with the North American Division and the Unions involved, the Cognitive Genesis Project at La Sierra University gathered information from surveys of teachers, administrators, students, and parents about factors that are related to academic achievement, including uniquely Adventist ones. These survey responses along with the standardized test results for students in Grades 3-9 and 11 provide the basis for establishing an accurate documented picture of elementary and secondary Adventist academic achievement. 9/23/2012 7:12 PM Get Involved, nominate the Woman-of-the-Year https://app.etapestry.com/hosted/AssociationofAdventistWomen/OnlineR...
