2007 will go down in Adventist history as an awesome year for youth ministries.  Not only did we just celebrate 100 years of successful youth ministries, but from the evangelism reports, the Just Claim It Prayer Conference, the hundreds of youth, pathfinders, adventures, young adults, and camp events, indeed thousands accepted Jesus as Savior and Lord. 

I want to thank each of you for the part you played to advance the kingdom of God.  I pray that your efforts have brought us closer to the soon coming of Jesus Christ.

We ended 2007 and began 2008 in Taipei, Taiwan while attending the 2nd World Conference on Youth and Community Service.  I am so proud of the115 individuals that participated in this service endeavor.  The impact on the lives of the people of Taiwan can only be truthfully measured in heaven.  We received so many reports from the local community and government officials expressing their appreciation for Seventh-day Adventist Youth.  To view Taiwan photos go to http://www.wcycsphotos.com/index.php
