Adriana Grujic, a social media expert and a workshop presenter, challenged the participants with a group task to develop a strategy for using social media in preaching the gospel.<\/p>\n<p>The children came up with the catchy name of \u2018Holy Cakes\u2019 referring to 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 \u2013 our bodies being the temple of the Holy Spirit, and everything that we do with our bodies should honour God \u2013 even our choice of cakes. A plan was formed to search for wholesome and healthy recipes and share them on YouTube. They went a step further suggesting that from time to time social events could be organised for the channel followers to bake together and taste the cakes.<\/p>\n<p>Cyprus Section Children\u2019s Ministries department capitalized on the idea by devising a new strategy in working with the children. Children will use social media in a creative way. The whole process will develop decision-making skills in children, and appreciation and promotion of a healthy lifestyle.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignright size-full wp-image-1180\" style=\"margin: 5px; float: right;\" title=\"[Photo: Pallavi Singh Morem]\" src=\"https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/sitenews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Cakes chefs\" width=\"200\" height=\"137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs.jpg 1119w, https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs-1024x702.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs-768x526.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs-350x240.jpg 350w, https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs-700x480.jpg 700w, https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs-900x617.jpg 900w, https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs-1100x754.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/images_news-2018_Holy-Cakes-chefs-560x384.jpg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A young Adventist Volunteer Services couple, Bogdan and Ksenia Osadchuck, used their experience from Hope Channel Ukraine for the shooting of the first \u2018Holy Cakes\u2019 programme.<\/p>\n<p>The young chefs, Emmanuel and Nivedh, commented: \u201cBaking is fun!\u201d and for their parents, brownies, without sugar and butter, never tasted better.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Healthy brownie\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6fvalgSAuSY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>ted<\/em>NEWS Staff: Victor Hulbert, editor; Sajitha Forde-Ralph, associate editor<br \/>119 St Peter&#8217;s Street, St Albans, Herts, AL1 3EY, England<br \/>E-mail: <span id=\"cloak5591a9076a2df3b8c274dd1793f24346\"><span id=\"cloakc53a258f97d5c02390892315e65f2887\"><a href=\"mailto:tednews@ted.adventist.org\">tednews@ted.adventist.org<\/a><\/span><\/span><br \/>Website: www.ted.adventist.org<br \/>tedNEWS is an information bulletin issued by the communication department of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the Trans-European Division.
