OUR PURPOSE:
What We Believe
Seventh-day Adventist beliefs are meant to permeate your whole life. Growing out of scriptures that paint a compelling portrait of God, you are invited to explore, experience and know the One who desires to make us whole. We believe that God created the seventh day Sabbath (Saturday) to rest and worship and believe that He invites each of us to have a personal relationship with Him. Learn more.
