Cuba
This spring, we were blessed to perform the first three baptisms by the Seventh Day Adventist Reform Movement Church in the nation of Cuba.

As of earlier this year, the Seventh Day Adventist Reform Movement Church had only one member in Cuba. Brother Ricardo had come to know the Reform Movement in Roanoke, VA where he was baptized thereafter. In the last year, the General Conference has intensified the work in Cuba, sending a Bible worker from Venezuela to attend the group. As the work progressed, it was decided that the Cuban church would be assisted by the brethren from the Dominican Republic, as they are closer and can visit more frequently.

Ecuador
On April 16, 2016, Ecuador suffered a massive 7.8 earthquake. As of the latest news received by the General Conference, none of our church members have perished or been seriously injured.

A huge 7.8 earthquake hit Ecuador on Saturday evening, April 16, when most of our church members were at church closing the Sabbath. Miraculously, none of the church structures were affected, but several felt the impact. Members exited the churches shaken but safe. Unfortunately, some members' homes did not endure the quake and many relatives of church members were even more seriously affetcted.

Although located in the center of the body, right above the kidneys, the adrenal glands orchestrate numerous activities through the stress hormones they release, which in turn affect areas of our body like the brain, heart, respiratory system, liver, and intestines.
