Welcome to the Downey Adventist Church!

Hello friends and guests! Christ has defeated death. Rejoice in his victorious resurrection for you!

This Morning is Communion Sabbath. The Communion Service is always a special Sabbath as we partake in the Lord Supper. This is a time to contemplate the immense love that God has for us, and rededicate our lives to Jesus.

Next Week the message is Looking Up. After Jesus resurrected out of the tomb, he spent 40 days with his disciples, and then, ascended to Heaven. For this Sabbath, the message will follow the accounts that led to Jesus's ascension and what that means to us today.

Our Abundant Giving project for April is Adventist Union School. AUS has a wonderful field and playground for the children. We are going to help raise money for bark for the playground. Our goal for the month is $2000. There are 5 weeks in April, so that's only $400 a week. If we can raise more than that, that would be awesome. To cover all the needed areas of the playground we would need to raise at least double that amount.
Let's help AUS keep the children safe on the playground.

Youth Baptismal Studies are starting during Sabbath School on April 9th. If  know a High School aged student who would like to join the studies, please see Bill.

April 16 the San Gabriel Academy Chorale will be with us. For this Sabbath, we will be blessed to have our worship service led out by the talented Choir group from SGA. It is always wonderful to have them come and inspire us with their beautiful voices and their youthful energy.
