The Seventh-day Adventist Church is united in the body of Christ through the Holy Spirit.1 We express our unity through the teachings of the Word,2 loving fellowship,3 worship,4 witnessing,5 serving the needs of others,6 and preparing for the latter rain of the Holy Spirit.7 We unite in sharing with the world the prophetic message of Revelation 14:6-12 and Christ’s message of reconciliation in anticipation of His Second Coming.8

MEASURABLE GOALS:

Significant increases in: 

  1. Church members embracing worldwide church unity in the body of Christ through biblical truth as understood by Seventh-day Adventists, led by the Holy Spirit

  3. Community and harmony in local churches and in church organizations at all levels of church structure, through the power of the Holy Spirit and training in biblical reconciliation and conflict resolution

  4. Commitment to zero tolerance of physical, emotional, spiritual, and sexual abuse through regular review of policies, background checks where possible, and clear and prompt action to deal with abuse
