Seventh-day Adventist® Church

Newcastle upon Tyne Seventh-day Adventist Church A diverse family of God: come and be a part of it

Science One member advised us that we should encourage our young people to be scientists - our teachings are so valuable that we recognise the need to share them with people who work in many scientific fields

Health Ministry Seventh-day Adventists are renowned for their 'Health Message'. We also care about the health of the community around us - so we run 'Health Expo's' and teach good health practices

Church is - people The church is people. We are a multi-national church joined by a common faith.

Children's Ministry Our children are special to us. Pastor Patricia Douglas joined us for a special 'coming of age' celebration. The children enjoyed learning that God is a great Potter, and we choose to be moulded by Him.

Music is important to us A normal Sabbath morning will always include music - usually with special items from singers or musicians. The talent is abundant. God indeed gives gifts

Sabbath School The first service on a Sabbath morning is a Bible study time we call 'Sabbath School'. All ages take part. The adult classes are stimulating discussions based on themes found in the Bible.

Pathfinders Our children benefit from Adventurers and Pathfinders. They go camping, learn skills and develop relationships with each other and God in a really safe environment

Ephesians

As a prisoner in the city of Rome, Paul wrote Ephesians to the church at Ephesus. The theme of this epistle was unity—the unity that comes from a common commitment of faith in Jesus Christ. Just ten verses into the letter, Paul writes that it is God’s plan “to gather together in one all things in Christ.”

In the first part of Ephesians, Paul gives the theological reasons for this unity. God the Father has chosen His people; they are now forgiven and set free from their sins by Jesus Christ.

Paul uses several figures of speech to show how this common commitment of faith will result in unity. He says the church is like a body, with Christ as the head; it is like a building, with Christ as the cornerstone; and it is like a wife, with Christ as the husband.

The theme of unity in Christ is still needed in our time as a remedy for the conflicts that so often face the church.
