Power of Prayer

Power of Prayer is the Children’s Mission story for August 22, featuring Nandor, a boy in Austria who dreamed of attending a Seventh-day Adventist school. The school was far from his home, and attending every day seemed almost impossible. So Nandor began to pray earnestly. He prayed every day for six months and later added another special request: that his family could find a home closer to the school. What happened next?

In Romania, a kindergarten teacher used her students’ excitement about chocolate eggs and the Easter bunny to introduce them to the true story of Jesus’ death and resurrection. When she invited all 26 families to church, many came—and David and his mother now attend regularly, learning together about the Savior who rose from the tomb.

The Davis’ Indians - Part 2

After Ovid Elbert Davis died of blackwater fever in 1911 at Mt. Roraima, the Indigenous believers he had taught in British Guiana continued meeting every Sabbath at his grave, singing the hymn he taught them and pleading for another teacher. Fourteen years later, missionaries finally returned, finding more than 130 people still faithful to the commitment Davis recorded before his death. Today, his legacy lives on through the Davis Memorial Hospital in Georgetown and the thriving Adventist communities that grew from his early work.
