Preparing for Cold and Flu Season

Your Body Was Designed to Heal

“My immune system must be down. That’s why I have a cold.” How often do we say something like this without knowing what the immune system really is? Health educator Barbara O’Neill believes the question matters, because it is important to know something about the house we live in. She calls knowledge of the human body the most important and most neglected form of education.

Her goal, she says, is to help people understand how the body works so they can treat it wisely. Here is her tour of the immune system, from the skin to the blood, along with the simple habits she says help it work at its best. We’d love to invite you to join us for church this Sabbath, where we celebrate health, faith, and fellowship.

Who Is Michael the Archangel?

A Name That Raises Big Questions

Michael the Archangel is one of the best-known figures in the Bible, and one of the most debated. Artists often show him as a winged warrior with a sword. Many people assume he is simply the top-ranking member of a large group of archangels. Yet Scripture points to something altogether different: that "Michael" is a name used for Jesus Christ in His role as the champion and leader of God's people.

This article looks at the Bible passages, the meaning of key words, and the history of Christian writers who support that view. It draws one clear line from the start: the claim is not that Christ is a created being. The claim is that Scripture sometimes uses words like "angel" and "Michael" for the Son of God to show His power and His care for His people.

Ministry of Healing: True Education, a Missionary Training

Every child has unique gifts, big dreams, and a special purpose in life. In this chapter from The Ministry of Healing, Ellen White explores how true education goes beyond textbooks to help young people grow in heart, mind, and character. By guiding children with love and encouragement, parents and teachers can help them build a strong foundation for a life filled with meaning and selfless service.

If you would like to grow together in faith and learn more about guiding the next generation, we warmly invite you to worship with us this Sabbath!

Christ Object Lessons: Go into the Highways and Hedges

In the parable of the great supper, Jesus reminds us that the gospel invitation is for everyone, regardless of their circumstances or background. God calls us to share His love with the overlooked, the discouraged, and those who have yet to know the joy of His salvation. May we open our hearts to His invitation and become faithful messengers of His grace.

We invite you to join us this Sabbath at church as we worship together, study God’s Word, and grow in the love of our Saviour.
