Ajax SDACC Member Wins Big at the First Ontario SDA Conference Earth Day Summit 2019

4/21/2019

 
On Sunday April 21, 2019 the first Earth Day Summit hosted by the Ontario Conference of Seventh-day Adventist was held at the Orion Hall, International Centre in Mississauga. This event was the brainchild of Mansfield Edwards, president of the Ontario Conference of Seventh-day Adventist. His goal was to have a free event inviting people from all walks of life to celebrate Creator God through the scientific lens. 

Guests were encouraged to register for the event, although registration was not mandatory. One of the incentive to register, either online or at the site, was the eligibility to win prizes, including an all-expense-paid trip to Cuba sponsored by Bayview Travel Service.

There were other prizes available including a Cash Scholarship for youth ages 19 to 25 who are studying environmental and earth related sciences at a College or University. They had to write a 1500-word essay to qualify. There was also a poster design contest open to the students of Adventist schools from grades 1-12. These posters had to deliver a clear and positive message about creation or the promotion and protection of the earth’s environment.

Christina Vassell, a member of the Ajax Seventh-day Adventist Community church and a Pathfinder, volunteered at the Summit and was excited to be the lucky winner of the all-expense-paid trip to Cuba. Like many of the other attendees, she was thrilled to visit over 50 booths displaying various scientific evidences of God’s detailed design and creation in nature. Christina is looking forward to her first trip to Cuba and anxiously awaits the announcement of the date and location of the next Earth Summit.

According to Dr. David Burt, a member of the steering committee, “[our] aim was to shed light on God’s character through nature and re-inspire in the community a sense of awe and wonder in God’s creation and a commitment to take care of it”.
