March 1972 Issue
Charles B. Hirsch
THIS year, 1972, has been declared by the church as MISSION 72, with the purpose of an all-out thrust for soul winning such as we have never before witnessed.

O. E. Torkelson
A PRINCIPAL isn't always sure that he is looking forward to a Week of Prayer. Sometimes a minister is recommended to conduct a series of religious meetings by a faculty member, a board member, or by the conference president. After the principal lets the coming Week of Prayer speaker be known, he hears many statements some are comments and some are warnings. . .

PRAYER meeting attendance at the Long Beach Seventh-day Adventist church was running about average with most other large churches I had heard of. On some occasions we were fortunate in having as many as 10 percent of our membership present. I had tried to increase attendance in many ways. . .

WHEN you receive this issue of THE MINISTRY, the MISSION '72 evangelistic meetings will be about to begin. The big question is, What more can you do to help make them a success? You will, of course, give the meetings the support of your own faithful attendance, even if other important matters may need to be postponed. . .

THE idea of a totally different television approach by the church in Australia was born from urgent necessity about five years ago. It was--and still is--almost impossible to buy prime or semiprime time on any of Australia's major stations. We had seen excellent results from Faith for Today and It Is Written in those areas where the telecasts had been given reasonably good time slots, but increased competition made it extremely difficult to obtain the necessary time slots in all areas. . .

WHEN I was in Holland some years ago I was intrigued to see young courting couples riding along side by side, each on a separate bicycle, but arm in arm--one hand on the outside handle bar and the other around each other's shoulders. Somehow it reminded me of the experience of the happy ministerial husband-and-wife team. . .

FROM the time that the Adventist believers gained a new view of the meaning of the cleansing of the sanctuary with the insight of Hiram Edson on October 23, 1844, the sanctuary and its meanings have held a prominent place in Adventist thinking. In a survey of the historical development of the doctrine of the sanctuary it is apparent that there have been different areas of stress at different times. . .
