Seventh-day Adventist leaders recently inaugurated the new central offices of the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) in Mexico, aimed at expanding and strengthening humanitarian work across the country.

The inauguration brought together top church administrators from Adventist unions and institutions, donors, and ADRA partners for a brief but meaningful ceremony in Colonia Narvarte, located in the heart of Mexico City. Attendees toured the new facility, which features a reception area, two conference rooms, offices for area coordinators and accounting staff, a kitchen, a warehouse, and a multipurpose terrace.

In the brutal chaos of the Battle of Okinawa, one man stood out. Desmond Doss, a conscientious objector, refused to carry a weapon. Yet, his unwavering courage and selflessness led him to become one of WWII's most decorated heroes. This is the incredible true story of Desmond Doss, the medic who saved countless lives without firing a shot.

Cities to Be Worked From Outposts

As God's commandment-keeping people we must leave the cities. As did Enoch, we must work in the cities but not dwell in them.--Ev 77, 78 (1899).

The cities are to be worked from outposts. Said the messenger of God, "Shall not the cities be warned? Yes, not by God's people living in them but by their visiting them, to warn them of what is coming upon the earth."--2SM 358 (1902).

For years I have been given special light that we are not to centre our work in the cities. The turmoil and confusion that fill these cities, the conditions brought about by the labour unions and the strikes, would prove a great hindrance to our work.--7T 84 (1902).

When iniquity abounds in a nation there is always to be heard some voice giving warning and instruction, as the voice of Lot was heard in Sodom. Yet Lot could have preserved his family from many evils had he not made his home in this wicked, polluted city. All that Lot and his family did in Sodom could have been done by them even if they had lived in a place some distance away from the city.--Ev 78 (1903).

For the present, some will be obliged to labour in Chicago, but these should be preparing working centres
in rural districts from which to work the city. The Lord would have His people looking about them and securing humble, inexpensive places as centres for their work. And from time to time larger places will come to their notice, which they will be able to secure at a surprisingly low price.--Ev 402 (1906).
