WORSHIP . GROW . SERVE
Who We Are
We are a growing community of families that love God and aim to support each other on life’s journey. We pray that you will be blessed and you peruse our virtual space. We hope to connect with you one-on-one soon.
In the meantime, please tell us a little about yourself and how we can best support you on your journey with God.
Our Core Beliefs
We believe that a Trinity of three persons—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—make up one God. They made salvation possible when Jesus, the Son, came to earth as a baby in Bethlehem and lived a sinless life in accordance with the Father’s will. When Jesus was crucified for the sins of the people of the world and arose from the dead on the third day, victory was won for everyone.
When He returned to heaven following the resurrection, Jesus left the Holy Spirit to serve as our Comforter and Counselor. He promised to return to earth a second time to complete His plan of salvation and take His people to heaven. Adventists are among the believers who look forward to that day.
We believe that God is concerned with the quality of human life, and that everything—the way we live, eat, speak, think, treat each other, and care for the world around us—is part of His plan. Our families, our children, our jobs, our talents, our money, and our time are all important to Him.
The Worldwide Church
The Seventh-day Adventist Church is a mainstream Christian church with approximately 19 million members worldwide, including more than one million members in North America. The Seventh-day Adventist Church seeks to enhance quality of life for people everywhere and to let people know that Jesus is coming again soon.
