Welcome to the Downey Adventist Church!

Welcome to 2016, welcome to Downey Church and welcome to our first worship service of the year!

This Morning the message is How Much Do You Need? Bill Aumack will share a message about having access to God's power. Is that a constant? Or does it vary? Duet. 33:25 says "as thy days, so shall thy strength be." What does that mean for us?

Next Week the message is Changing It Up #1. The Bible calls for us to be a new creation as Paul wrote, "if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!"(II Corinthians 5:17).  As the New Year has come, we are reminded of changes that we need to make. In reality, it is only when Christ is in our lives that real change can ever occur.

The memorial service for Ray Fernandez is tomorrow at 1pm here at the church. Please join us as we remember our dear friend Ray.

Our small group series Agape starts on Feb 6th. If you would like to host a small group please talk to Pastor Cary or Bill. Thanks.

Sign up for Flowers! Be sure to sign to help provide flowers next year for the worship service. Sign ups are in the foyer.

The message on January 16th is Changing it Up #2. This Sabbath's message will be a follow up from the 9th.  To make a real change in our lives, it is often said that we need to have will power. What we really need is less of our will, and that happens when we learn to surrender everyday and allow Jesus to be the one that is directing our path.
