posticon “I Still Do” – Marriage Ministry

Our mission is to nurture the spiritual, emotional, physical, intellectual and social needs of married couples. Supporting them in their walk together in this sacred institution ordained by God.

God celebrated the first marriage. Thus the institution has for its originator the Creator of the universe. “Marriage is honourable”; it was one of the first gifts of God to man, and it is one of the two institutions that, after the fall, Adam brought with him beyond the gates of Paradise. When the divine principles are recognized and obeyed in this relation, marriage is a blessing; it guards the purity and happiness of the race, it provides for man’s social needs, it elevates the physical, the intellectual, and the moral nature.

posticon “Golden Age” – Senior Ministry

Our mission is to nurture the spiritual, emotional, physical, intellectual and social needs of the seniors. Supporting and empowering them in their twilight years.

I hope that none of those who have been long in the work will think that because they are growing old, they are incapacitated for service. I hope that they will stand up to bear their message as long as they have the evidence that the Lord is helping them. Edson [Ellen White’s second son], encourage the men who have long borne burdens in our work. Even though in their old age their memory may fail somewhat, yet respect them, and the Lord will surely bless you. And let no aged worker, although he is old and gray, think that he is released from service. Let the work be carried on in simplicity. Surely we have the Lord on whom to depend. – Letter 102, 1910.

posticon “God’s Army”- Youth Ministry

Our mission is to nurture the spiritual, emotional, physical, intellectual and social needs of the youth. Guiding them to Jesus to Sheperd them through the perils of and end time world. 

In order that the work may go forward in all its branches, God calls for youthful vigor, zeal, and courage. He has chosen the youth to aid in the advancement of His cause. To plan with clear mind and execute with courageous hand demands fresh, uncrippled energies. Young men and women are invited to give God the strength of their youth, that through the exercise of their powers, through keen thought and vigorous action, they may bring glory to Him and salvation to their fellow – men.

Our mission is to nurture the spiritual, emotional, physical, intellectual and social needs of the children. Leading them into a loving relationship with Jesus, and thus a powerful positive impact on our community.

The training of children constitutes an important part of God’s plan for demonstrating the power of Christianity. A solemn responsibility rests upon parents so to train their children that when they go forth into the world, they will do good and not evil to those with whom they associate.

posticon “YAM” – Young Adult Ministry

Our mission is to nurture the spiritual, emotional, physical, intellectual and social needs of the Young Adults. Empowering them to finish the work of the gospel to hasten the soon coming of Christ.

It is a fearful thing to use God – given abilities in such a way as to scatter blight and woe instead of blessing in society. It is also a fearful thing to fold the talent intrusted to us in a napkin, and hide it away in the world; for this is casting away the crown of life. God claims our service. There are responsibilities for every one to bear; and we can fulfill life’s grand mission only when these responsibilities are fully accepted, and faithfully and conscientiously discharged.

posticon “Up-And-Comer’s” – Tweens Ministry

Our mission is to nurture the spiritual, emotional, physical, intellectual and social needs of the tweens. Helping them to understand their importance to God and society as they transition from childhood to teenage life.

Paul saw that Timothy was faithful, steadfast, and true, and he chose him as a companion in labor and travel. Those who had taught Timothy in his childhood were rewarded by seeing the son of their care linked in close fellowship with the great apostle. Timothy was a mere youth when he was chosen by God to be a teacher, but his principles had been so established by his early education that he was fitted to take his place as Paul’s helper. And though young, he bore his responsibilities with Christian meekness.

posticon “SAM” – Single Adult Ministry

Our mission is to nurture the spiritual, emotional, physical, intellectual and social needs of the Single Adults. Supporting them as they shine for Christ.

The believer thus makes a sacrifice for Christ which his conscience approves, and which shows that he values eternal life too highly to run the risk of losing it. He feels that it would be better to remain unmarried than to link his interest for life with one who chooses the world rather than Jesus and who would lead away from the cross of Christ.
