Adventist Family Ministries is…

Adventist Family Ministries reinforces and encourages wholesome families. It helps individuals build and maintain strong family relationships because it recognizes that healthy Christian families make strong members for the kingdom of God and present a winsome witness to the community around them. Adventist Family Ministries promotes understanding, acceptance, and love within the family and in the larger family of God and fosters the reconciliation and healing between the generations promised in the Elijah message of Malachi 4:5, 6. It extends hope and support to those who have been injured and hurt by abuse, family dysfunction, and broken relationships.

Adventist Family Ministries fosters competence in a variety of interpersonal skills needed in relationships. It provides growth opportunities through family life education and enrichment. It encourages individuals, married couples, and families to avail themselves of professional counseling when necessary.

• premarital guidance available to all couples before marriage;

FAMILY MINISTRIES I WILL GO STRATEGIC PLAN

I Will Go is the Seventh-day Adventist Church’s strategic focus for the 2020-2025 quinquennium. This experience is meant to involve all church members around the world in reaching the world. This initiative is also designed to inspire and equip church members to use their God-given spiritual gifts in witness and service for Christ.

In Adventist Family Ministries we have included the emphasis of family?hence, I Will Go with My Family. Like Moses in Egypt, whose vision and mission it was to leave that experience of bondage with every single member of the Hebrew family, it is also our commitment to involve every member of our families in mission as we prepare for the coming of the Lord. As such, We will go with our young and old. We will go with our sons and daughters… (Exodus 10:9).
