lifelong walk with Him. The original presentations were broadcast live
via satellite and will be available June 15 in both English and Spanish

** LAST CALL FOR MEAL TICKETS AT GC SESSION - "Fair St. Louis," an
annual celebration which draws thousands of people to downtown St.
Louis, is scheduled for July 2-4 this year, during GC Session. Common
sense tells us that there will be large crowds of people competing for
meals in St. Louis restaurants on those days, and probably on the days
just before and after.

GC Session meal tickets are still available, but can be
pre-ordered only until May 31. After that sheer luck will play a large
part in your ability to get any tickets onsite.

Contact: www.gcsession.org/travel/meals.html.en to order by May
31.

** NATIONAL TELEVISION PREMIER OF "THE CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTOR" - If you
receive cable TV, be sure to tune in to PAX TV Memorial Day evening (9
pm ET & PT; 8 pm CT & MT) for the first nationwide telecast of the story
of Desmond Doss. This is a wonderful opportunity that has presented
itself for our church and we encourage all who can to invite their
family and friends to be a part of this special event.

Contact:
http://www.nadadventist.org/article/articleview/561/1/8/ to download
church bulletin inserts which will make it easy for churches to announce
the program.

** THE MAY ECHURCH WINNER IS the Pacific Union College Church, at
www.pucchurch.org. Newly submitted websites will be loaded for
evaluation by May 25 for the June eChurch Award.

** "LIFELINES" PSAS NOW ONLINE - "LifeLines," 60-second public
service announcements from the Seventh-day Adventist Church about
health, are now available on the Internet. "Lifelines" PSAs are
hosted by Dr. Elmar Sakala, an expert in lifestyle education and
speaker/writer for the nationally syndicated public service radio
program, "Got a Minute for your Health?"

At the conclusion of each spot, listeners are directed to call
the Vibrant Life office or visit their web site. Vibrant Life's staff
will answer any questions and send them a free copy of Vibrant Life.

"LifeLines" is a great resource for local churches that own
radio stations or produce radio programs.

pastors and members, available while supplies last.
