8 HAMILTON SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH Our Vision: The vision of the Hamilton Seventh-day Adventist Church is to be a caring, biblically directed Christian Fellowship, where everyone experiences a loving relationship with Jesus Christ and is committed to using their talents and abilities to prepare others for His Second Coming. Our Mission: The mission of the Hamilton Seventh-day Adventist Church is to proclaim the everlasting gospel to our families, friends and neighbors, leading them to accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and nurturing them through Christ centered ministries in preparation for His soon return. Our Method: We pursue this mission under the guidance of the Holy Spirit through: Preaching: We proclaim the message of a loving God fully revealed in His Son Jesus Christ and the Bible. We present the Bible s full message, which includes the second advent of Jesus Christ and the Ten Commandment law with its reminder of the Seventh-day Sabbath. Teaching: We nurture the development of a loving relationship with God, by furthering the understanding of God s will through Bible studies, teaching health and stewardship principles and community seminars. Restorating: We minister to the needs of the whole person, which involves the compassionate ministry of restoring the spiritual, physical, emotional and social well-being through various community services, health programs and support group ministries. Discipling: Affirming continued spiritual growth and development of all members. We nurture the converted, instruct them in righteous living, train them for effective witness and encourage their responsive obedience to God s Will. Our Motto: Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33. Spread the Love! Share the Joy!
