North American Division

Prior to the start of the 2023–24 academic school year, some 500 Columbia Union Conference educators got ‘schooled’ at the North American Division Educators’ Convention in Phoenix.

Debra Clements Brill, former vice president for ministries for the North American Division of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, passed to her rest on August 27, 2023, at her home in Jamaica, Va., after an extended illness. She was 71.

At the "Something Better" Educators' Convention kickoff event, students, educators and administrators flooded the Phoenix Convention Center for a chance to browse the 150 exhibits offering endless tools, ministries, organizations and resources, each designed to support the needs of Seventh-day Adventist education.

Last spring, the North American Division conducted a survey for Adventists with comparable incomes. The results show a great diversity, ranging from an anticipated net worth at retirement below $200,000 to more than $5 million.

Close to 150 Allegheny East Conference members attended and several presented at the the recent North American Division CALLED Pastors’ Family Convention held in Lexington, Ky.

On March 14, 2021, the Potomac Conference Corporation will be the first conference in the Columbia Union Conference to virtually host a full constituency meeting. Like many organizations that have had to adjust their official meeting protocols, after much prayer and deliberation, Potomac made the decision to proceed with the virtual option. The conference’s executive committee later approved the request from the conference administration.
