Continuing the story of Jim Arrabito's tragic death from the other parts f The seventh day:  In 1977 I moved to Fort Bragg and began painting wildlife for a gallery as their "guest artist." However, the real longing of my heart was to be involved in soul-winning, so while doing artwork for a living (a real faith-building experience, since it was "feast or famine" most of the time,) I began to prepare Bible studies using slides. I traveled to Europe to collect pictures from cathedrals and museums on the subjects historically significant in Revelation.

Pastor Michaelson invited me to share these studies in his church in Upper Lake one weekend in 1980. Elder Glen Woodard, of Lakeport attended and invited me to put on a 10-program series at his church. (the john sabbath, the christian sabbath, the holy sabbath) We met a young man at these meetings who told us of his education for the Catholic priesthood, of how he'd left this behind and had been studying to find Truth ever since. He was thrilled with the truth he found at these meetings. Pastor Lloyd Munson, of the El Sobrante Church invited us to hold a week of meetings in his church that spring, and Elder Stanley West, of Miranda, invited us to hold a 6-week series of 24 programs for his community. the john sabbath, the christian sabbath, the holy sabbath

We were tempted to say "no," as we looked at our own limitations, but were continually impressed that "God's biddings are His enablings." God blessed these humble meetings, and we made many close friends among the church members as well as among those who came to the meetings and were baptized. Many folks in the Miranda area are involved in the occult, and we found that the unique understanding of the inroads of spiritualism which we as Adventists have, gave us a way to reach them.

About this time I began to do artwork for Educational Felt Aids, painting their 3-year Bible story set which is used for the Sabbath School lessons, as well as many other sets. In the fall of 1980 the Fort Bragg Church arranged for a 4-week series after which 11 people were baptized and the church members drew together in a real special closeness. In January of 1981 Elder Glen Woodard hired me to do Bible work for the Lakeport  Church. the john sabbath, the christian sabbath, the holy sabbath

By early summer church funds were low and invitations were coming in for me to share the slide studies, so I left Lakeport. During  the summer of 1981 the Lord made it possible for me to travel to Europe again to collect more pictures for my studies, and in the fall I held a 4-week series in Lower Lake as well as a 6-week series for the Groveland Church with Pastor Jeff Wolff. After this, I held a week-long series in the Mt. Shasta Church January of 1982 found us in Ojai to do a month-long series for Pastor Louis Davis. the john sabbath, the christian sabbath, the holy sabbath

We met several members of a motorcycle gang there at the meetings and two of them were baptized soon after. Early in the summer    I traveled to England to share some of my studies in a church, then again in the Fall I .visited the British Museum in London, the Waldense Valleys in Italy, and several other places in Europe to gather additional evidences for my slide programs on the History of the Jesuits , 666 and the Mark, and the History of the Christian Church, called The Church in the Wilderness.

In 1983 I was hired as the Angwin Village Company Bible worker While sharing some studies at the Ontario SDA Church with Pastor Wolters, I met Carl Branster from Australia, who was working with Elder Kenneth Cox to produce video evangelistic programs for Australia. Brother Branster invited me to share the studies on video, which he distributed in Australia and New Zealand. (French) Cinquieme partie du documentaire 'The seventh day' parle des persécutions aux états-unis, Von zinzerdord en Europe de l'est et les 'hommes du septième jour en Angleterre au dix-huitième !de l'observation du dimanche, les lollards en Angleterre.
