The world church focuses on Revival and Reformation as the theme for our collective spiritual journey in 2010-2015. Knowing that Sabbath schools are important venues to turn church members into disciples of Christ, the Hong Kong-Macao Conference has planned three seminars that aim to teach, to motivate and to equip its Sabbath school teachers.
The first seminar was held on March 23, 2013. About 110 people attended the event. Pastor Samuel Chiu, also an associate professor at Hong Kong Adventist College, was the main presenter. He used various charts to clearly explain the Twelve Minor Prophets, the main subject of the Sabbath school lessons for the second quarter of 2013.
Pastor Chiu hopes that, by giving the comprehensive overview and some additional knowledge of the twelve books in the Old Testament to our Sabbath school teachers, he can help them better relay the messages in these books to our local Adventists. Many of those who attended the seminar expressed their appreciation for this timely training.
The other two seminars for this year are scheduled on June 22 and September 21.
