Health Seminar in Italy

April 20, 2015
On Sunday, March 29, 2015, the 24th Health Seminar was held in the city of Turin. Such meetings are held throughout the territory of the Italian Field, and this one was held in Piedmont, the land of the Waldensians.

Health Department Staff

 

The Italian Field has been doing missionary work by combining the forces of several interdisciplinary teams to spread the gospel more efficiently. Brother Gaby and Sister Giovana Daramus, together with the church leader, Bro. Butilca, led the Italian Field Health Department with the support of the Turin Church.

The central theme of the conference was: "Neuroscience: Brain Plasticity." This lecture was given by Brother Abel Morales, who shared with the attendees the current scientific evidence of the relationship between good food and mental/physical health.

 

Opening Meeting

 

Healthful food was provided on a beautiful table arrangement.

 

At the literature sales booth, the team managed by the youth, Renata Butilca (a student at the Italian missionary school) and Ligia Radu, reported that the distribution of books on Christian topics and natural health was very successful.

 

Literature Booth

 

According to the receptionist team led by Sister Semida Sascao from Trieste, and Marinel Radu from Turin, there were 54 visitors  (90% Italians and 10% other European and South American). The public relations team led by Sister Tabitha Tinta (who organized the "before, during, and after" meetings) reported that the missionary contacts were very fruitful and that many people were interested to learn more about our principles of faith and our Christian lifestyle.

 

Closing Meeting

 

The media and communications team led by Brother Liviu Lung, informed us that soon they will publish the official video of the meetings on the Field's website: http://movimentodiriforma.it
At the present time the visitors are being contacted and visited to develop a better spiritual rapport with them. One of the attendees who works at the offices of the National/Telecom Italia Communications, offered the facilities of his employer for the next event so the company's officials of this multinational institution may be blessed by the health information that will be presented. The Italian Field Health Team has set the date of June 7, 2015, for this next event. Please pray for these meetings that many souls may benefit from them and that the name of God be glorified.
