SULADS JOIN
WITH MINISTERIAL SEMINAR TO BAPTIZE TWENTY-FOUR FROM THE MISSION SCHOOLS AT MVC
by Fred L. Webb
September, 1996
One of the major goals of the
SULADS program is to win souls to Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Many times, this is not easily done as Satan
does not easily let go of his captives.
But the SULADS do not work alone to win these souls.
The Ministerial Seminar of Mountain
View College is also very active. On any
given Sabbath morning, up to 500 young men and women will leave the campus of
MVC and ride in overcrowded jeepneys or walk to over one hundred churches where
they perform the functions of pastor, evangelist, and Branch Sabbath School
Leader. This exposure gives the
ministerial students an advantage when they graduate as they already have
experience in leading out in churches.
The Ministerial Seminar serves
several of the churches where the SULADS are operating their mission
schools. Two of these are Migtulod and
Upper Balambangan, both of which are not far from MVC among the Talaandig
Tribe. Ministerial Seminar evangelists
worked in these villages during the first semester of 1996 and on September 21,
a mass baptism was conducted on the campus of Mountain View College.
From these two villages, twenty
four gave their hearts to Jesus and accepted baptism. While many of these were youth, several
adults also were convicted and joined the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
