Pennsylvania Conference
Story by Lillian Torres
God has promised that powerful things happen when His people come together to pray: “If two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of My Father which is in Heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, there am I in the midst of them” (Matt. 18:19–20, KJV).
Ellen White reminds us, “The promise is made on condition that the united prayers of the church are offered, and in answer to these prayers there may be expected a power greater than that which comes in answer to private prayer. The power given will be proportionate to the unity of the members and their love for God and for one another” (Manuscript Releases, vol. 9, p. 303).

Blue Mountain Academy (BMA) has long been a place for young people to experience academic excellence, deepen their relationship with God and enjoy a strong Seventh-day Adventist community. This is beautifully exemplified in the stories of alumni Kyle and Nicole Nase.

The Pennsylvania Conference is excited to welcome Alberto Balio and his wife, Milerqui De Paula, back to its state. Balio is the new Hispanic Ministries coordinator and pastor of the Reading Emmanuel Hispanic church.
“We are thankful to God for leading Pastor Balio to return to our conference,” shares Gary Gibbs, president. “He had a significant influence in advancing and building our work among the Spanish language population when serving in Pennsylvania before, and we believe God will use his heart for people, his passion for evangelism and his sense of mission to impact and grow the work in our Hispanic churches.”

There is something powerful when children see their parent(s) daily set aside time to worship their Creator God both personally and corporately as a family unit. It is through daily connection with God that families receive a fresh supply of His mercy and grace.
