We, @AdventArchives, are passionate about the history of the @AdventistChurch, and so we share its stories with you.SDAhistory.com Maryland, USAJoined July 2017
A December reflection described “Christmas-tide” as a season of reunions, song, and gift-giving—without condemning those customs—while nudging readers toward worship and meaningful thank-offering. bit.ly/4bBwufs#AdventistHistory
An Ingathering report noted that much territory had already been covered in fall and winter campaigns, then highlighted a determined six-year-old who insisted on participating—visiting homes and returning with donations. bit.ly/3M5zGFW#AdventistHistory
A Harvest Ingathering appeal emphasized that the first and greatest purpose wasn’t money—it was the ingathering of souls. The campaign was framed as a lay movement to energize mission through community contact and spiritual purpose. bit.ly/4bGHHvr#AdventistHistory
A mission report described Southern African highlands where there is “snow almost every winter,” noting elevation and the challenge of choosing suitable mission land in the mountains. Snow showed up in unexpected places. bit.ly/4td07KB#AdventistHistory
Printing after disaster: In the first Review issue after the publishing-house fire, readers were told the staff couldn’t supply back numbers—yet supporters were urged to “rally” around the paper and show practical sympathy. bit.ly/3ZMYwNR#AdventistHistory
News and commentary following the Battle Creek Sanitarium fire helped push Adventists to rethink institutional concentration and future strategy. Winter brought the blaze—but it also accelerated major organizational changes afterward. bit.ly/4qj8v8z#AdventistHistory
A report remembered a key meeting held February 4, 1882—and noted that despite blizzard conditions, many Adventists traveled to attend. The gathering set in motion plans that helped launch a denominational school initiative. bit.ly/4abTeQH#AdventistHistory
Warm clothes, global impact: A welfare report appealed for winter clothing to be shipped overseas—naming Korea and Pakistan as urgent destinations. It’s a practical reminder: winter ministry often looks like warmth in a box. bit.ly/4kdDl0K#AdventistHistory
Winter evangelism plans: A conference update urged churches to plan evangelism for the winter and spring, tying seasonal momentum to mission goals—while also reporting progress on Ingathering support. bit.ly/4tcfRxt#AdventistHistory
Wintertime colporteurs at work: One Adventist paper urged members—especially farmers with extra time in the cold season—to use thewinter months for literature evangelism. When fieldwork slows, mission work doesn’t have to. bit.ly/4jULo2A#AdventistHistory
In 1886, John Tay visited Pitcairn for five weeks and persuaded the islanders to keep Saturday rather than Sunday. The island then asked for a minister to return so a church could be organized and members baptized. bit.ly/3KF1LTT#AdventistHistory
In August 1887, Elder C. L. Boyd baptized the first Seventh-day Adventist believers in South Africa at Beaconsfield (near Kimberley) and organized the first SDA church—26 newly baptized members and their children. bit.ly/4aWuWfy#AdventistHistory
In Argentina’s Entre Ríos Province, Adventist education and mission became closely linked. River Plate Adventist University (Universidad Adventista del Plata) is located in Libertador San Martín, Entre Ríos. bit.ly/4pKVAN7#AdventistHistory
In 1886 the first local Seventh-day Adventist church was established in the village of Berdi Bolat. One of the new members, Gottfried Tetz, became the first elder—an early milestone for Adventism in the wider area of Russia and Ukraine. bit.ly/4anQfXp#AdventistHistory
For over 25 years, Adventist churches in the South American Division have joined the Mutirão de Natal—collecting food, clothing, toys, and hygiene items to donate in their communities around Christmas. bit.ly/4qkQxTF#AdventistHistory
During the 1990–1991 crisis, the Baghdad Adventist church choir was shown on television singing Christmas carols under the direction of Rayan Fargo. The BBC picked up the footage and broadcast the choir singing “Silent Night” in Arabic. bit.ly/492sHVu#AdventistHistory
China Mission was the first Adventist administrative unit in China, with J. N. Anderson as its superintendent. It was reorganized in 1909 as China Union Mission, then dissolved in 1912 as mission units related directly to the Asiatic Division. bit.ly/44zcYvV
The Adventist mission in India was organized in 1895. It was administered under the General Conference as “India Mission.” Its headquarters was first located at 154 Bow Bazaar Street in Calcutta, with a superintendent leading the work. bit.ly/4aipJi2#AdventistHistory
