Illinois—Illinois members and pastors have committed to "Touch Every 1 for Jesus." Here is one way this is being accomplished.

Members of the Beacon of Light, Belvidere, Freeport, Rockford, and Savanna churches gathered at the Severson Dells Forest Preserve for worship on August 12, with visitors from Itaska and Oregon, Ill., as well as several from California and Minnesota.

Two of the visitors were young men with little exposure to the Adventist church. One joined the group for "fellowship and singing in the park." With no transportation, he invited the other friend to go with him. Neither of the young men knew what to expect, but were glad they came.

Spending Sabbath in the park is an excellent way to "Touch Every 1 for Jesus."
