ADRA: Perbedaan antara revisi

A Los Angeles Times story from 1998 reports on ADRA's 1996 10-year strategic plan, which calls the agency "a bona fide ministry of Jesus Christ and the Seventh-day Adventist Church" and "provides a strategy to reach people previously untouched by other church institutions. The church's mission is incomplete without ADRA's distinctive ministry."<ref>[http://articles.latimes.com/1998/aug/14/news/mn-13136 A History of Complaints Dogs Adventist Aid Agency], ''Los Angeles Times'', August 14, 1998</ref>Much has been said about faith-based agencies taking US government funding and using those funds to further religious doctrinal missions, however ADRA does not proselytise.
