Seventh-day Adventists are all about rest, hope, and action.
We are a Bible-believing Christian community shaped by a distinct rhythm of rest and renewal. Anchored in hope, we seek to make meaningful and lasting contributions to the communities we call home.
The Bible gives us two reasons to rest and worship on the seventh day
The Sabbath is a memorial of creation. God both created us and sustains us, making him deserving of our worship.
The Sabbath is also a memorial of redemption. At the cross, He set us free from everything that holds us captive – allowing us to rest in Him.
Modern research agrees:
Sabbath rest renews us. Studies have demonstrated that Sabbath-keepers tend to live longer,
aligning with the natural seven-day rhythm woven into our biology.
“Large population studies of Seventh-day Adventists show that men live about 11 years longer and women about 9 years longer than the general U.S. population, a difference researchers link in part to their weekly 24‑hour Sabbath rest.”
Buettner D, American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine, 2025.
Advent means coming. The first coming of Jesus brought redemption, His second coming promises restoration. Adventists live with that hope and it transforms us. Studies show that a sense of purpose boosts well-being. Because it improves our lives, we love to share that hope with others.
“Purpose improves well-being”
Grace is a free gift. We accept it, and it changes us. It’s like being offered a lifeline by someone you once considered an enemy. We respond with gratitude, living in freedom.
Grace changes everything!
