Thank You for Giving to Help Students Like Stefan

As a student missionary in Tchad, Africa, Stefan Heisler became very involved.  

However, he had been feeling discouraged and underappreciated in his efforts. "Sometimes the people you're working with have no concept of what you've given up to go work with them," Stefan says, "You can't blame them for it... but you can't deny all the feelings of your heart and your memories."

Then the surprise of a scholarship award notification lifted his spirits.  "God shows Himself faithful to those who are faithful," he says, "even when they feel forgotten and underappreciated."

This story was made possible by the Blair Endowed Scholarship for Health Care Management.

Legacy Society Recognized

A special Legacy Society Recognition Reception will be held in the Presidential Banquet Room on March 21, 2010 to thank those who have established a future planned gift in support of Christian education at Southern Adventist University.

President Gordon Bietz will host an evening of fellowship, a light meal, and beautiful music. The reception will be followed with a performance by Southern's Symphony Orchestra at the Collegedale Church. VIP seating will be provided for Legacy Society members. Invitations will be forthcoming to current Legacy Society members. Due to limited seating, RSVP will be required.
