ASEZ WAO volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God in Cerritos, Los Angeles, Orange County, and Torrance came together on Sunday, November 17, 2024 to host a Beautification Project & Park Cleanup at Riverview Park in the City of Bellflower. A total of 150 volunteers participated in the beautification project with enthusiasm and excitement to bring Mother’s love to the community. With the mind of Mother, ASEZ WAO volunteers fully embraced the idea that “We Are One” family and were eager to show sincere love to all humankind, starting with their local communities. First, volunteers spanned the entire park to pick up any litter and plastic waste products that not only hindered the park’s aesthetics, but also posed a threat to the environment’s sustainability. Since the park was often frequented by residents and visitors, and was also inconsistently maintained, the area was susceptible to trash buildup. Thanks to God’s grace and united efforts, 60 bags of trash were collected. In addition to cleaning the area, the ASEZ WAO volunteers worked in collaboration with the City of Bellflower Parks & Recreation Department, who provided the sod and plants to properly beautify the area. The volunteers joyfully took action to properly till the soil beds, lay the sod, and plant various kinds of plants and seedlings. Overall, 880 square feet of sodding was laid and 500 plants were planted in the former desolate space. While the volunteers enthusiastically cleaned and beautified the park with bright smiles, local residents and passers-by expressed their gratitude for their efforts and shared how the renovated space created a happier and welcoming environment for all. Not only did the park look more inviting, but it also promoted a safe environment for people of all ages to enjoy.

Cilën Ditë të Javës Është Sabati, Dita e Bekuar dhe e Shenjtë? Edhe nëse i hedhim një sy kalendarëve, fjalorëve, librave katolikë dhe Biblës, mund të shohim se dita e Sabatit, dita e adhurimit që Perëndia caktoi, është e shtuna. Jezusi e mbajti ditën e Sabatit dhe dishepujt e Tij e mbajtën ditën e Sabatit, jo adhurimin e së dielës. Populli i Perëndisë duhet të respektojë ditën e Sabatit [të shtunën] që Perëndia e ka caktuar. Kisha e Shoqërisë Misionare Botërore të Perëndisë kryen adhurimin në ditën e shtatë të Sabatit [të shtunën] të caktuar nga Perëndia. Pastaj erdhi në Nazaret, ku ishte rritur, dhe si e kishte zakon ditën e shtunë, hyri në sinagogë dhe u ngrit për të lexuar. Luka 4:16

What sparks the passion of the youth in the Church of God? Every year, the Church of God in South Africa hosts an inspiring youth camp for young adult members from across Africa. This dynamic event is filled with uplifting activities such as games, singing, dancing, and—most importantly—fellowship through the Words of God. The camp is designed to strengthen the faith of young adults and equip them to be the salt and light of the world. As their hearts are renewed with spiritual strength and joy, they return to their universities and workplaces empowered to share God’s love and lead by example.

Masigasig na lumahok ang mga kabataan ng World Mission Society Church of God sa paglilinis ng mga pangunahing kalye sa Barangay Socorro, Lungsod ng Quezon noong Ika-12 ng Agosto 2018. Nagpaabot ng suporta ang Tanggapan ng Barangay Socorro at ang Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP), gayundin ang Tanggapan ng Alkalde ng Lungsod ng Quezon. Nagbigay ng mensahe na pampasigla ang Tagapangasiwa ng ASEZ WAO sa Pilipinas sa mga nakibahagi sa programang ito. Layunin ng gawaing ito na isagawa ang kalooban ng Makalangit na Ina at isikat ang liwanag ng kaluwalhatian ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ng mabubuting gawa kasabay ng pagdiriwang ng Ika-100 taong kapanganakan ni Cristo Ahnsahnghong. Hindi inalintana ang ulan at pagragasa ng tubig sa mga estero, nagsumikap ang 130 miyembro ng ASEZ WAO na malinis nang mabuti ang mga kalye at kapaligiran, inaalala ang puso ng Makalangit na Ina. Kamangha-mangha ang naging resulta nito kung saan 250 na sako ng basura ang nakolekta nila. Ayon pa sa pahayag ng isang opisyal ng Barangay Socorro, "Ang mga tao na nagsasagawa ng ganitong proyekto ay pagpapalain ng Diyos sa hinaharap. Amen!” Maraming salamat sa ating Makalangit na Ama at Makalangit na Ina.

On Sunday, February 23, 2025, ASEZ held the Zero Plastic 2040 Forum in unity with local churches from the San Diego County area. This event focused on initiatives from the overseas IUBA group that had been sent to the local Escondido Church of God. ASEZ’s “Zero Plastic 2040” is an awareness-raising initiative, where diverse individuals take on the challenge to commit to zero plastic through small daily actions and commitments to tackling plastic pollution, hoping for a plastic-free future. The “Zero Plastic 2040” Forum took place at the University of California San Diego’s (UCSD) Price Center to continue the campaign to raise awareness about the dangers of plastic pollution and to draw global attention to the United Nations and the international community’s goal of a plastic free world by 2040. Almost 400 guests attended the event. In addition, experts in the study of Microplastics, leaders in education, and government representatives spoke powerfully on the issue and what can be done to tackle it. These guest speakers included Dr. Sara Belontz, Dr. Dimitri Deheyn, Dr. Mark Sanchez, Francine Busby, Tiffany Aguinaldo, Dr. Calvin Collins, Dr. Jong Won Min, and Dr. Sam Ho. Attendees of the “Zero Plastic 2040” Forum were able to hear from guest speakers on the awareness of reducing microplastics and waste, as well as solutions for tackling plastic pollution and protecting our oceans and waterways. Francine Busby, the District Director from California Senator Blakespear’s office, presented ASEZ and the Church of God with an award for their efforts to positively influence the world, especially through contributions towards protecting the environment.

On June 29, 2025, volunteers from the Church of God gathered at Stewart State Forest in New Windsor, NY, for a tree-planting event in partnership with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS-DEC). The event supported the Church’s global Forest of Hope Campaign and aligned with the United Nations’ World Environment Day and the World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought. Restoring Native Forests Volunteers planted 300 native trees and shrubs provided by the NYS-DEC. The planting included white pines, oaks, maples, sycamores, and dogwoods. The planting took place on a former cornfield that was slowly being reclaimed by native forest, but invasive plants had begun to take over. By planting native trees, volunteers helped the forest grow back faster and healthier. A Shared Goal for a Healthier Future Assemblymember Chris Eachus visited the event and thanked the volunteers in person. He shared, “It’s very much a privilege for me to be here with you, because we all appreciate what you do here. You have just improved my district today… I want to thank you all for your efforts.” Kelly Turturro, NYS-DEC’s Hudson Valley Regional Director, also praised the volunteers’ work: “Every tree planted benefits our climate by capturing carbon, supporting wildlife habitat, and strengthening flood resiliency.” This event also marked a milestone: The Church of God planted its 930th tree in New York State. Assemblymember Brian Maher presented a citation recognizing the achievement. Many who joined weren’t members of the Church but came to support the cause. One guest, Natalie Ortiz, said, “Volunteering makes you feel good because you’re doing it for a good cause, and together, we can accomplish anything.” Whether digging a hole, planting a tree, or simply showing up to help, each volunteer made a difference—not just for the forest, but for the future.

Perëndia tha se ata që adhurojnë idhuj do të mallkohen. Danieli, Shadraku, Meshaku dhe Abednego iu bindën fjalës së Perëndisë dhe e ruajtën besimin e tyre. Ata kurrë nuk u përkulën para një imazhi edhe kur ishin në një situatë pranë vdekjes. Kryqi është bërë një simbol i kishës sot. Megjithatë, është një idhull që nuk duhet të ngrihet kurrë. Kisha e Perëndisë nuk e ngre kryqin, i cili erdhi në kishë pasi Jezusi dhe apostujt kaluan, por ndjek fjalët e Shpëtimtarëve, Krishtit Ahnsahnghong dhe Perëndisë Nënë.
