Hey I'm SDA too. Well technically I was raised SDA, majority of my family is SDA and I believe that SDA is the only way, but i don't practice living the SDA way
nono:. It's hard when there isn't a big SDA community where you live and all your friends want to party on Friday night, go shopping on Saturday, then hit up the clubs on Saturday night. And i'm not just talkin about my friends who aren't SDA. I'm also refering to them "BADventist" also. Ya'll pray for me, I'm trying to live right

I completely understand. It's a challenge sometimes to walk the straight and narrow. I believe I'm the only SDA at my school - wish there was just one other person. So yes, I will pray for you. Please pray for me too.
We need to keep this thread going too. The times are changing right before our eyes...encouragement is very necessary.

I'm the only SDA in my family! It can never be easy but prayer is the key! Keep believing and remembering what is true! I'll be praying for you too- pm me if you want

Hey ladies!!!
I'm SDA, born and raised, now living in the MD/VA/DC area. I'm originally from Charleston, SC (South Atlantic Conference). This thread is so encourging to me right now
Hey! I'm from that area though I'm living in Richmond now. I'll be home for part of the summer. What church do you go to?

Hey divya!! I go to New Life SDA in Gaithersburg, MD. Which church do you go to in Richmond--Ephesus?

Ok! Have to visit there soon!
I go to both Patterson and Ephesus, depending on the week. I'm actually a member at Community Praise in Alexandria. Not going to change membership b/c I plan to move back to the D.C. area.
I am struggling with the sabbath keeping too! We all need to pray for each other.. I think God is truly weeding out the people who will make it to the kingdom vs. who won't in these very last days..
Just seeing the pope the other day broadcasted on every channel gave me chills!

Wow... I've been lurking on this site for a while. This is my first post. I am 3rd gen SDA. Currently backsliding as I'm in Boston(not really feeling the fellowship here). I've been to Berea, Boston Temple and Cambridge. I love Cambridge the most but I miss my home church in southern CT
. After reading thru the majority of this thread I felt compelled to post. Be encouraged!

Happy Sabbath ladies!
I'm off to church here in England. It's going to be my first time. It's about 40 mins away by bus/walking combined and I'm walking about 30 mins of the way. LOL! For once I am glad for the cool weather so that I am not sweating when I get there.
Take Care ladies and God bless!

Sunday Shopping Banned in Croatia
Croatian Shops to Be Closed on Sundays as of Jan. 1 in Concession to Catholic Church
The Croatian parliament has passed a law forcing shops to close on Sundays in a concession to the Roman Catholic church.
The church has campaigned for years for Sundays to be devoted to family or Mass in Croatia, which is almost 90 percent Roman Catholic. But Croatians have begun spending weekends in shopping malls that have flourished across the country in the past few years and remain open seven days a week.
The law adopted Tuesday and goes into effect Jan. 1. It allows Sunday shopping over the summer and Christmas holidays.
The law also allows stores in gas, bus and train stations to open on Sundays year-round, along with those in hospitals. Bakeries, newsstands and flower shops are also exempt from the ban.

Please pray for Adventists and any other Sabbath keepers in Croatia! The time is drawing near!

Happy Sabbath ladies!
Rara, I didn't go to Oakwood either but did attend Pine Forge for 1 year.
O ok. Its interesting that you went to Pine Forge and not Oakwood...
why was that?
I know that when I decided against Oakwood my family and some friends were disappointed. They thought I was going to become this giant heathen. lol.
It's my second year and I am still very much an Adventist.

Well, I went to Pine Forge my junior year of high school. It was great spiritually but needed some improvement in other areas. It was also expensive. Plus I wanted to come home and graduate with all my friends back home for senior year.
As for Oakwood, my parents never really pushed it like that. They converted to Adventism a few years before I was born so there is no Oakwood legacy there. There were other people who wanted me to go to Oakwood, but it wasn't for me. If I had attended an Adventist school, it would have been Andrews or CUC.
