From the moment my yellow slip-proof socks hit the sterile hospital hallway floor, I was in love! Strangely upbeat for a woman awaiting brain surgery just a couple of weeks before Christmas, I treated everything with unguarded enthusiasm, pointing to, say, a lone red tinsel garland clumsily affixed to the wall with genuine glee (“Love it!”). Before dawn, I was camped out at the nursing station, cutting out construction paper ornaments and eavesdropping on the nurses’ conversations and thanking the staff like I was a candidate for mayor.

Leandro Bizama – Loveland, Colorado … Listening intently to the story of how the Bible was made and how it was published, student clubs, church members and participants from the community got to experience up close what is arguably one of the most important world-changing inventions in history–the printing press.
“It was a blessing to have an exhibit from The Enduring Word Museum from Wetherford, Texas here on our campus on the anniversary of Reformation Day, October 31,”” said Leandro Bizama, pastor for evangelism and worship at Campion Adventist Church.

JJ Martinez – Grand Junction, Colorado … When you are asked the question, “What is the church?”, what comes to mind? What is your response? One answer could be that the church is a community of same-faith believers uplifting each other while fulfilling the Great Commission. That would be a correct answer. But is that all the church is? While I agree with that answer, I believe the church is more than just that. The church is also a place where people can come and feel safe and loved. Where they feel like they are part of a family. |

Ana Segawa – Loveland, Colorado … Campion’s staff members displayed their talents to students in various presentations, with the intent of finishing the semester in a lighthearted way this past Saturday night.
Marc Winokan, freshman student, commented, “Staff talent show was really fun. I enjoyed all the acts, but my favorite was Ms. Johnson and Portia’s singing. Overall, it was a very fun night.”
Erin Johnson and Portia Kluchesky kicked off the program by singing classic Disney princess songs while dressed in costume and acting their parts.
