Welcome to the Downey Adventist Church!

We're glad you've joined us to worship God. Sing, pray and enjoy the Word of God when it is read and preached. Then go forth under the Holy Spirit's leadership.

This Morning the message is God is Good. For this Thanksgiving weekend, we will have a message that reminds us of all the amazing things that God does for us. The Psalmist says, "with my mouth I will give great thanks to the Lord; I will praise him in the midst of the throng" (Psalm 109:30; ESV). It is so important to uplift God in praise and also uplift each other with encouragement.

Next Week the message is The Light of the World. In the Gospels, Jesus said "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life" John 8:12.  In the Christmas story, the wisemen from the East followed the light of a star which lead them to Jesus. The sermon for this Sabbath will be a reminder to always follow the light that Jesus is continually giving us.

Pajama Drive. Remember to bring some new PJs for children and teens in our area. Please bring new, complete sets by December 12th. Thank you!

Christmas Service, Dec.19th, 10:50am. Join us in celebrating Christmas. The service will feature music, drama and a special message. All are welcome!
