Revelation of Hope Evangelistic Meetings in Progress
 This is it! Following months of preparation, the Revelation of Hope evangelistic meetings are in progress in metro New York City. The joint efforts of five conferences (Allegheny East, Greater New York, New Jersey, Northeastern, and Southern New England), two unions (Atlantic and Columbia), the North American Division, and the General Conference will be realized over the next seven months and beyond.
"This is part of a worldwide initiative by the Seventh-day Adventist Church to reach the urban centers of the world where the fastest population growth is happening. This initiative, known to church members as NY13, is the boldest endeavor of the church to date to reach cities with the gospel of Jesus Christ in 2013 and beyond," says Donald King, Atlantic Union Conference president.
Every Seventh-day Adventist member who is aware of this initiative has the opportunity to make a positive impact on the outcome of these meetings through prayer, visits to and participation at evangelistic sites, community outreach endeavors to heighten awareness about the meetings, financial contributions, and more. Pray for God's direction on what your role should be in this endeavor.

Volunteer efforts included preparing and serving food at various locations, helping with the clean up in hurricane damaged areas, praying for people in several locations around the city, donating blood, and much more. Highlights of the Compassion Rally included a press conference and a march against violence across the Brooklyn Bridge. Joining the youth were representatives from the North American Division, Atlantic Union, the five conferences, NETS, the One Year in Mission team, and others.
