Five-star Projects ★★★★★
Individuals can sponsor Signs of the Times magazine for family, friends and acquaintances monthly—and that’s great! But in order to reach the wider public, it’s necessary to place Signs where people are. Signs’ Five-star Projects do just that, right across the South Pacific. We’d love to have you partner with us, to reach more people than ever before.

Australian Transport Outlets
A great place to leave Signs is where people are forced to wait and need something to read. And what better than Signs? Current locations include Melbourne, Broome, Townsville, Hobart and Launceston airports, aboard Tasmanian ferries and a Narrabri, NSW, bus-truck stop. We’ve also added the Sydney Adventist Hospital to this project, where magazines are taken by guests from a score of racks in almost every waiting room.
Outback: Adventist Aviation
Adventist Aviation groups take Signs to remote towns and “grey nomads” deliver them to fuel stations and caravan parks as they travel. Some are sent to fixed locations, such as Alice Springs and Wagga Wagga, while others are given out by committed volunteer distributors. The Adventist Aviation groups in Queensland and WA conferences give away hundreds of magazines each month when they fly into remote communities. Struggling outback churches can also access these Signs.
Literature Evangelists
The most productive means of distributing Signs is personal delivery. And there’s none better than a trained literature evangelist (LE) to do this. Sensing a need as they connect with new people in the community, they’ll leave a Signs behind to provoke deeper thought and build a positive relationship. LEs in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific islands all receive Signs from this pool.
NZ Evangelism
All mass distribution of Signs in New Zealand falls into this project, which includes outlets in airports and bus stations, special event outreach initiatives and even Signs rounds. In South New Zealand, churches wishing to adopt a town can access magazines through this project.
Pacific Islands Outreach
The opportunities for distribution in the South Pacific islands are limitless. These Signs go to university libraries, prisons, remote clinics and local outreach initiatives such as the ADRA shop on remote and impoverished Kiribati. This project could use tens of thousands of sponsored Signs should generous donors emerge.
Signs for Our Schools
This project provides Signs to the non-Adventist homes of students attending church schools in Australia and New Zealand. This is fertile ground. In some cases Signs are provided to poorer schools and in others they’re used to kick-start the process while schools build local sponsorship.
Adventist Media Cultural Trust
Donations to our Cultural Trust are tax deductible, and support the work of Adventist Media as a whole.
