NAD COVID-19 SYMPOSIUM // May 15, 2021 // 3:00PM CDT

On May 15, 2021, the North American Division will broadcast this symposium on COVID-19 vaccines. Healthcare professionals, communication experts, and church theologians will gather to help make sure church members are well informed when deciding whether to take the vaccine.

Organizers stated that the purpose of the symposium is to provide vaccine education and to address some of the major questions and hesitancies regarding the COVID-19 vaccines among Seventh-day Adventists. "We are planning for the symposium to be pastoral in tone," said organizers. "The emphasis will be on discussion and dialogue — and respect for individual choice."

Presenters will include evangelist Mark Finley and church historian Merlin Burt; and they will discuss the theology and history of the church's relationship with science. Medical experts will include doctors Peter Landless and David Williams; they will discuss the research behind the vaccines. Media and communication experts will also participate, to share how to deliver accurate information about the vaccines.

This special broadcast will be available on the Hope Channel, NAD Adventist Facebook page, and the NAD YouTube channel on May 15, from 4-6:30 p.m. EDT.

Send in your questions now! Email covidquestions@nadadventist.org for the Q&A section of the program — questions will be selected from viewer emails.

The older we become, the more crazy life seems to get. In fact, it quickly starts to feel like we're drowning. In an effort to stay afloat, we begin to rely on ourselves more and more, forgetting about the power of the God we grew up learning about.
Our God does not operate in a box and He is not limited like we are. He is able to do more than we could ever ask or imagine. There is simply nothing He cannot do. It just takes us to acknowledge that and lean into His promises. After all, it isn't Him who drifts, but us.
We pray Adventist Young Professionals’ book, ***The God I Used To Know***, touches your walk with God in a way you haven't experienced before. You are precious and you have a Father who sees yesterday, today and tomorrow. Trust He is still working for you. Click the above icon or here to order your copy today.
