    enditnow® Emphasis Day – Go Find My Sheep

    23 August 2024 - 31 August 2024
    Mountain View College
    41 Doonside Road
    Doonside NSW 2767

    enditnow® is a global initiative to raise awareness and advocate for the end of violence around the world.

    It aims to mobilise Seventh-day Adventists around the world and invites other community groups to join in to resolve this worldwide issue.

    This initiative, which extends to more than 200 countries and territories, was launched in October 2009 in partnership between the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA)–a prominent humanitarian organisation and the Department of Women’s Ministries of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, two entities that are representative of the Adventist Church.

    enditnow is the most important stand the Seventh-day Adventist Church has ever taken regarding violence against women, men and children.

    2024 Theme: Go Find My Sheep

    Both the Old and New Testaments refer to God’s people as sheep, to the body of believers as a flock, and to our Lord as the Shepherd. Abuse victims need to know that Jesus cares about them. And that’s where we come in, says Joanna Daniel, author of the 2024 resource packet.

    In the “The Trauma-Informed Church” seminar, Joanna Daniel describes five ways the church can help traumatized people heal and find community. They include an informed team, awareness of existing barriers, effective listening, preserved confidentiality, and continued support.
