Message Notes
La Sierra University Overview
La Sierra University, an institution nationally acclaimed for its diverse campus and its service to others, offers a transformational experience that lasts a lifetime.
U.S. News & World Report named La Sierra University the most diverse university in the western United States the past five years. And in early 2008 the Corporation for National and Community Service selected La Sierra for the Honor Roll with Distinction, part of the 2007 President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll program. The award recognized La Sierra's students for providing nearly 45,000 hours of service. Such efforts included international economic development projects by La Sierra's World Cup-winning Students In Free Enterprise team, and community projects through La Sierra's campus-wide Service-Learning program.
The Seventh-day Adventist denomination established La Sierra University in 1922 on acreage formerly part of the Rancho La Sierra Mexican land grant. Today the institution provides more than 120 bachelors, masters and doctoral degrees for about 2,300 students.
"To Seek, To Know, and To Serve" is the key to the mission that drives La Sierra University, with all areas of campus encouraging students to develop a deeper relationship with God.
La Sierra University, "Where Academic Investigation, Christian Faith and Service to Others Unite," is widely recognized as an exceptional academic institution providing hands-on learning experiences in a safe, nurturing atmosphere.
Affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church, La Sierra is acclaimed for its academic quality, opportunities for research at both the undergraduate and graduate level, community service emphasis, and demographically diverse student body. Students thrive in the small, professor-taught classes where academic topics are investigated and Christian faith is a cornerstone of education.
La Sierra students change the world as they learn. Service-learning courses put classroom knowledge to work helping the community. La Sierra's internationally award-winning Enactus (formerly SIFE) team has empowered people around the globe.
In addition, many students participate in mission work around the world.

This Week, La Sierra University's student-led ministry called Roots will be providing the message for us. This should be an inspirational Sabbath as collegiate youth share with us their love for Jesus.
Next Week the message is What is Important? During this Memorial Day weekend, we remember all those that sacrificed their lives in order for us to be free. We can often forget what truly matters until something or someone is taken away from us. As we show our gratitude to all those that died for our freedom, let us live in a way that also honors their death.
Graduates Needed: If you know a church family member who is graduating from Kinder, 8th Grade, High School or college; please let us know. Thanks!
Vacation Bible School is July 16-22. If you would like to help, please talk to Bill or Linda. Thanks!
The flowers today are for Mimi's birthday from the Gonzalez family.
