Welcome to the Downey Adventist Church!

Welcome! May you find joy and hope in this place of worship. We are God's children, so welcome one another with that in mind.

This Morning the message is Honesty, Integrity and Work. The Bible says, "for the love of money is the root of all evil" (I Timothy 6:10).  Love for money will reveal a person's character, and this sermon talks about the importance of how character matters in all things especially as it relates to our finances.

Next Week the message is Saving and Investing. Wisdom from the Bible says, "precious treasure and oil are in a wise man's dwelling, but a foolish man devours it" (Proverbs 21:20; ESV). God has given us the resources to fulfill His purpose for our life, and a wise man will be intelligent with their money on how they spend or save it. When we do follow God's principles on finances, we are able to live with a greater sense of freedom and the way God intended us to live.

Celebration Sabbath is Nov. 21st. Our small groups will be sharing their experiences. Also, we will be sharing a Thanksgiving Luncheon together. So please sign up to bring some food and join us!

Remember to set your clocks back one hour tonight. Also change the batteries in your smoke detectors.

Kitchen Utensils: If you have borrowed something from the kitchen (pots, pans, knives, etc.), please return them. We seem to have quite a few things missing. Thank you.

November 14th the message is Rewards of Financial Faithfulness. We conclude our Faith and Finance sermon series with a call for patience. Jesus told John, "look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done" (Revelation 22:12). When we live less for the immediate satisfaction that comes from squandering and temptation, we are able to make choices that have eternal value.
