An Adventist Division, a Conference, the Pathfinders,

Arbor Day in South America was celebrated this year on September 21, 2021. On this day people are encouraged to plant trees and participate in educating the public about the importance of sustainable development. It is one of the many days of the year set aside to promote conservation. They also speak out against climate change and the destruction of the environment on Arbor Day. A lot of coordination and planning takes place for Arbor Day, as a wide range of events are scheduled for this day.

The North Parana Conference of Seventh-day Adventists is located in Maringa, Brazil, and they are promoting Arbor Day by announcing that one of their academies was celebrating this day. The South American Division headquarters are also located in Brazil and they also issued a press release describing how Adventist academies were partnering with municipal governments to help plant trees.

The Adventist academy in Londrina showed students hugging trees on Arbor Day. Other students were standing around a tree in a circle with the tree in the middle. This is very similar to what pagans do when they worship nature. The Adventist Academy in Tupa was encouraging students and people to “hug trees” because they help us breathe. It’s not just this Adventist school doing this. The Adventist academy in Inhaúma, the academy in Marambaia, the academy in Grão Pará, the academy in Tijuca, the one in Miranda and Lorena also commemorated Arbor Day.

If that wasn't enough, the João Monlevade city government sent its Environment Secretary, Samuel Domingos, to the local Seventh-day Adventist church in João Monlevade to give a lecture on Arbor Day on the importance of preserving the environment to the youth of the church. Adventist pastor Leandro Dias de Carvalho’s response to city officials teaching sustainable development in his church was: “It is very important for us to be able to raise awareness among young people about caring for trees and nature. I am very happy to add to the guidelines for the youth and the community around us.”

I don’t blame the children. I blame the parents, the pastors and the church for this tragedy. Why don’t they leave the kids out of these tree hugging environmental engagements that exalt the earth? This is damaging the young and vulnerable minds of our youth. To understand what is really happening we must look no further than Rome and the United Nations. They are the architects who are promoting earth worship, green eco-religion and a worldwide ecumenical movement that embraces everyone. And all of this is coming to Adventism and is causing our people to lose their identity and mission.

Let Us Stop Avoiding the Real Issues
As the 2025 General Conference Session convenes, with believers from around the world watching and praying, there is an unmistakable sense of frustration among many of the faithful. While we will be given lectures about returning our tithes and offerings-as outlined in the proposed 2025 Church Manual agenda-we must ask ourselves: is this truly the burning concern on the hearts of God's remnant people at this critical hour in history?

Pride Month has become an international freak show that takes place in June and comes complete with nudity, debauchery, bondage, and sexual decadence-all aimed toward children.

Penang Adventist Hospital Wishes you a Happy Deepavali
The celebration of Deepavali is associated with Lord Krishna, a major Hindu god. During the Deepavali festival, which usually lasts about 5 days, worshipers commemorate Lord Krishna’s victory over the cruel demon known as Narakasura. It is said that this demon oppressed the people until the people prayed to Krishna, who responded by killing Narakasura during a battle.
