In the small community of White City, Oregon, an Adventist congregation is thriving. The Samoan Seventh-day Adventist Church is committed to lifting up the name of Jesus in their community and preserving the customs, traditions, and language of the Samoan people in their church.

September 18, 2021 was a high Sabbath for The Dalles Adventist Church congregation as they celebrated the long-awaited grand-opening of their new church building in The Dalles, Oregon.

Many of you have still not received your September/October Gleaner. The North Pacific Union Conference (NPUC) has been working hard to track down the problem.

“In March of this year I faced my abuser. I’ve had a lot of life changing moments I can point to, but I believe they were getting me ready for that day."

An “inflection point” in mathematics is “a curve at which a change in the direction of curvature occurs.” The more general definition would be that it is “a time of significant change in a situation; a turning point” Twenty years ago, we experienced a major inflection point for our nation. In recent years, we've seen many others.

The Dalles Seventh-day Adventist Church hosts their grand opening on September 18, 2021. When you walk in the sanctuary, you'll notice the chandeliers. The ones that God had planned on from the start.

To my Adventist and Christian brothers and sisters, this message comes straight from my pastoral heart.
