We're all in need of our dear Saviour Who gave His life upon the cross He gave His life upon the cross

CHORUS

And I will stay connected to Jesus Where He leads me I will go

Yes I will stay connected to Jesus Where He leads me I will go

(REPEAT)

3. There is one mission that's before us To show the world the love of Christ

To let them know that He is coming back To save us from our sin and strife

He'll save us from our sin and strife

CHORUS And I will stay connected to Jesus

Where He leads me I will go (REPEAT)

STAY CONNECTED, STAY CONNECTED, STAY CONNECTED.

Nuggets for Institute 2021

Quotations from Spirit of Prophecy

Theme: Stay Connected - I Will Go

Connected Through Training

“They must be taught how to labor for the Master. They must be trained, disciplined, drilled, in the best methods of winning souls for Christ. Teach them to try in a quiet, unpretending way to help their young companions. Let different branches of missionary effort be systemati-cally laid out, in which they may take part, and let them be given instruction and help. Thus they will learn the work of God.”—Gospel Workers, p. 210

Connected Through Service Remember that in whatever position you may serve, you are revealing motive, developing character. Whatever your work, do it with exactness, with diligence; overcome the inclination to seek an easy task.—The Ministry of Healing, 499 (1905). . CM 78.2

Connected through Reporting Let those who gain such an experience in working for the Lord write an account of it for our papers, that others may be encouraged. Let the canvasser tell of the joy and blessing he has received in his ministry as an evangelist. These reports should find a place in our papers, for they are far-reaching in their influence. They will be as sweet fragrance in the church, a savor of life unto life. Thus it is seen that God works with those who co-operate with Him.—Testimonies for the Church 6:336 (1900). CM 79.1

Page 20: Literature Evangelists Congress Joint Union Publishing

20

Connected to Enlighten the World “God expects His church to discipline and fit its members for the work of enlightening the world. An education should be given that would result in furnishing hundreds who would put out to the exchangers valuable talents. By the use of these talents, men would be developed who would be prepared to fill positions of trust and influence, and to maintain pure, uncorrupt-ed principles. Thus great good would be accomplished for the Master.” 6T 431.3 Hundreds of young men should have been preparing to act a part in the work of scattering the seeds of truth beside all waters. We want men who will push the triumphs of the cross; men who will persevere under discouragements and privations; who will have the zeal and resolu-tion and faith that are indispensable in the missionary field.... GW 293

Connected through Visitation Finishing God's Work We have nothing to fear for the future, except as we shall forget the way the Lord has led us, and his teaching in our past history.” 9T 10.3 The Lord calls upon His people to labor—labor earnestly and wisely—while probation lingers. 9T 126.3

Connected to Witness Literature in Service - Witness to the World “The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.” Psalm 68:11. 9T 61 Christ's Follow-up Plan—Christ sent out His disciples two and two, go to places to which He would afterward follow.—Manuscript 19, 1910. Ev 58.2 How He Met the People—If you would approach the people acceptably, humble your hearts before God, and learn His ways. We shall gain much instruction for our work from a study of Christ's methods of labor and His manner of meeting the people. Ev 53.2

Page 21: Literature Evangelists Congress Joint Union Publishing

21

Study Christ's Methods—If ever it has been essential that we understand and follow right methods of teaching and follow the example of Christ, it is now.—Letter 322, 1908. Ev 53.1 “The Lord desires to see the work of proclaiming the third angel's message carried forward with increasing efficiency. As he has worked in all ages to give victories to his people, so in this age he longs to carry to a triumphant fulfillment his purposes for his church. He bids his believing saints to advance unitedly, going from strength to greater strength, from faith to increased assurance and confidence in the truth and righteousness of his cause. 9T 8.4 Our Saviour went from house to house, healing the sick, comforting the mourners, soothing the afflicted, speaking peace to the disconsolate. He took the little children in His arms and blessed them and spoke words of hope and comfort to the weary mothers. With unfailing tenderness and gentleness, He met every form of human woe and affliction. Not for Himself, but for others did He labor. He was the servant of all. It was His meat and drink to bring hope and strength to all with whom He came in contact. And as men and women listened to the truths that fell from His lips, so different from the traditions and dogmas taught by the rabbis, hope sprang up in their hearts. In His teaching there was an earnestness that sent His words home with convicting power.. GW 188.2 Christ's method alone will give true success in reaching the people. The Saviour mingled with men as one who desired their good. He showed His sympathy for them, ministered to their needs, and won their confidence. Then He bade them, “Follow Me.”—The Ministry of Healing, 143. 3

Connected to People Those who are true to their calling as messengers of God, will not seek honor for themselves. Love for self will be swallowed up in love for Christ. They will recognize that it is their work to proclaim, as did John the Baptist, “Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” [John 1:29.] GW 56.3 He Drew by Love—Christ drew the hearts of His hearers to Him by the manifestation of His love, and then, little by little, as they were able to bear it, He unfolded to them the great truths of the kingdom. We also must learn to adapt our labors to the condition of the people—to meet men where they are. While the claims of the law of God are to be presented to the world, we should never forget that love, the love of Christ, is the only power that can soften the heart and lead to obedience.—The Review and Herald, Nov. Ev 57.3

Page 22: Literature Evangelists Congress Joint Union Publishing

22

Connected to Show Concern Our Saviour went from house to house, healing the sick, comforting the mourners, soothing the afflicted, speaking peace to the disconsolate. He took the little children in His arms and blessed them and spoke words of hope and comfort to the weary mothers. With unfailing tenderness and gentleness, He met every form of human woe and affliction. Not for Himself, but for oth-ers did He labor. He was the servant of all. It was His meat and drink to bring hope and strength to all with whom He came in contact. And as men and women listened to the truths that fell from His lips, so different from the traditions and dogmas taught by the rabbis, hope sprang up in their hearts. In His teaching there was an earnestness that sent His words home with convicting power. GW 188.2 Men are in peril. Multitudes are perishing. But how few of the professed followers of Christ are burdened for these souls. The destiny of a world hangs in the balance; but this hardly moves even those who claim to believe the most far-reaching truth ever given to mortals. There is a lack of that love which led Christ to leave His heavenly home and take man's nature that humanity might touch humanity and draw humanity to divinity. There is a stupor, a paraly-sis, upon the people of God, which prevents them from understanding the duty of the hour. COL 303.1

Connected to share Hope Our Redeemer is the center of all our faith and hope. Those who can present His matchless love, and inspire hearts to give Him their best and holiest affections, are doing work that is great and holy. By diligence in canvassing, by faithfully presenting to the people the cross of Calvary, the canvasser doubles his usefulness. But while we present these methods of work, we cannot lay out an undeviating line for everyone to follow. CM 42.1

Connected to show Sympathy How little do we enter into sympathy with Christ on that which should be the strongest bond of union between us and Him—compassion for depraved, guilty, suffering souls, dead in trespass-es and sins! The inhumanity of man toward man is our greatest sin. Many think that they are representing the justice of God while they wholly fail of representing His tenderness and His great love. Often the ones whom they meet with sternness and severity are under the stress of temptation. Satan is wrestling with these souls, and harsh, unsympathetic words discourage them and cause them to fall a prey to the tempter's power. MH 163.2

Page 23: Literature Evangelists Congress Joint Union Publishing

23

Connected to Show Courage Hope and courage are essential to perfect service for God. These are the fruit of faith. De-spondency is sinful and unreasonable. God is able and willing “more abundantly” (Hebrews 6:17) to bestow upon His servants the strength they need for test and trial. PK 164.3

Connected to Go The Lord imparts a fitness for the work to every man and woman who will co-operate with di-vine power. All the requisite talent, courage, perseverance, faith, and tact will come as they put the armor on. A great work is to be done in our world, and human agencies will surely respond to the demand. The world must hear the warning. When the call comes, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” send back the answer clear and distinct, “Here am I; send me.”—Testimonies for the Church 6:331-333 (1900). CM 14.2

Connected to Practice Honestly and Integrity Honesty and Integrity—The worker who has the cause of God at heart will not insist on receiv-ing the highest wages. He will not plead, as some of our youth have done, that unless he can make a stylish and elegant appearance, and board at the best hotels, he will not be patronized. What the canvasser needs is not the faultless apparel, or the address of the dandy or the clown, but that honesty and integrity of character which is reflected in the countenance. Kindness and gentleness leave their impress upon the face, and the practiced eye sees no deception, detects no pomposity of manner. CM 63.2

Connected to be Tactful Missionaries are wanted everywhere. In all parts of the field canvassers should be selected, not from the floating element in society, not from among men and women who are good for noth-ing else and have made a success of nothing, but from among those who have good address, tact, keen foresight, and ability. Such are needed to make a success as colporteurs, canvass-ers, and agents. CM 28:2

Connected to Show Courtesy and Kindness Open Doors by Courtesy and Kindness —One of the simplest, yet most effective methods of labor is that of the canvasser evangelist. By courteous behavior and kindness such a worker may open the door of many homes. When he is entertained by strangers he should show him-self thoughtful and helpful. Never should he make himself a burden, requiring to be waited up-on by those upon whom rest the cares of the household. Should there be sickness in the home while he is there, let him do all he can to help. Sometimes he will find men who say they are too busy to listen to a canvass or a Bible readi ng. Often he may gain their attention by helping them in their work. CM. p. 88. 2
