From the pen
of Donna Jackson...
Friend,
Thank you for all that you gave of yourself during this past year to spread God's love within our division. As we bid adieu to 2014, my prayer is that you will grasp God's plan throughout 2015 to prosper you (Jer. 29:11) in body, mind and spirit. Thus, in this issue, we offer a menu of topics from which you will hopefully find something of interest and of practical benefit. May God breathe His blessing into your whole being as you journey through this issue and throughout 2015.
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health just as your soul prospers. ~ 3 John 1:2 (NKJV)

What would happen if every Seventh-day Adventist in North America would spend just a few minutes each day - or maybe just one minute each day - praying for one specific person...a neighbor, a colleague, someone special that God lays on your heart? What if even half of our members would catch that vision?
Well, if just half of us made that commitment between now and the next three or four months, and if we spent only a minute each a day - one minute each day - over the next ten weeks or so we would storm the gates of heaven with more than a million hours of focused intercession! Read More

Roasted Vegetable
Phyllo Rolls
Debi Pederson
(click here for the recipe)
Debi Pedersen says that she created Roasted Vegetable Phyllo Rolls for holiday entertaining because she feels that the vegetarian entrees should be very special! She also says, "This looks like a lot of ingredients, but it makes 3 rolls and if you don't need all 3, they freeze well for future use.
To make it vegan, leave out the cheese (though it doesn't hold quite as well when you cut it). Also, change the 1 T. of butter for sauteing the onions to vegan margarine. And only use the olive oil between the layers of the phyllo.
Submitted by:
Debi Pedersen, Trust Officer, Northern California Conference and co author of two vegetarian cookbooks
