LINDA VISTA UNIVERSITY WEEK OF PRAYER IMPRESSIONS

I ended the Week Of Prayer at Linda Vista University on Sabbath September 15. This is our own run campus in the Chiapas region of South Mexico. The school is situated in a deep valley surrounded by incredible beatiful mountains. It is an ideal place to send your child to school if one speaks Spanish.

I was very much impressed by this campus. The school has about 800 students and almost 95% are baptized Seventh day Adventists. This is an incredible enrollement making this school one of the very few with such a high percantage of Seventh day Adventist students. Teachers in this school are all full members of the Seventh day Adventist Church.

The campus has a high spiritual environment. During this week of prayer I was surprised to see students running to get a seat during the week of prayer. They sat while I preached at the edges of their seats.. The music in this school is second to none. So many groups of great singers. The week of prayer was blessed by outstanding items. When the students sing it is like voice of angels. I miss the music so much.

The University is so friendly. Teachers and students alike. They stop to great you and spend time with you. Indeed the atmosphere on this campus is what I call the typical Adventist one.
The school's landscape is edenic. So beutiful and the grounds are kept so well. One feels like being in a tropical botanic garden. The grounds are kepts very clean.

On the last day of the week of prayer 13 young people were baptized and about 20 joined the Bible Study Class. It is my hope that most of these will be baptized soon.
I did enjoy very much conducting this week of prayer and wanted to share with you what my impression of the campus was.

I am glad that you had such a positive experience at Linda Vista. With your permission, I will translate your blog into Spanish so that the people whose lives you've touched can read your description in their own language.

Hey Mr. Muganda, this is a youth over here in the NAD, I saw on Insight Magazine's website that you guys are working on a myspace-like website for adventist youth. I hope this idea is still up and going, because i feel we need something like this for us youth. Please respond! Here's where i saw the idea: http://insightmagazine.org/gccontest/index.asp

To Anonmous,

Yes - you are very right with what you saw. The Administration at the General Conference is seriously looking into this item. I personally am very convinced that our youth deserve such a quality social network. It is my vision and continue to pray for me and my team as we persue this item.
I wish many young people would sign a petition to us that this kind of site is needed in the Adventist Church for our youth.

I am excited in hearing of an Adventist social networking site. I don't want MySpace due to the ads, bad hype, bad content, etc.... so i am so excited. Any idea when it might be up? Or else I be googling for the adventist social networking site until it comes up..... :)
