WHAT WE DO
We believe that God has not given up on the world and He will one day create a New Earth where love and freedom will be a reality. This vision shapes everything we do today.
Across the globe, in bustling cities and remote villages, the Seventh-day Adventist Church is sharing hope through acts of service, education, and healing. With a presence in over 200 countries and territories, our mission extends far beyond church walls, reaching into classrooms where children discover their potential, hospital rooms where the sick find comfort, disaster zones where the desperate receive aid, and communities where neighbors become family.
We believe that no one will be hungry in the New Earth, so we have humanitarian agencies like ADRA that are trying to feed the hungry to anticipate this future reality. We also believe that no one will be sick or even ignorant on this New Earth, which is why we have hospitals and schools everywhere. Each act of service is a preview of God’s coming kingdom—a tangible expression of His love in a world that desperately needs hope.
There are more Adventist churches in more communities worldwide than McDonald’s, Starbucks, or Subway combined. Each of them announces this New Earth every day, calling every person we impact to a saving relationship with Christ so they can start experiencing the joy that will one day soon be our constant reality.
Education:
Nurturing Minds for the New Earth
In the New Earth, ignorance will be no more. That’s why today, we operate the world’s largest Protestant school system with over 10,000 educational institutions serving more than 2.3 million students globally. From primary schools in African villages to universities recognized by governments worldwide, we’re not just teaching mathematics and science but nurturing the whole person mentally, physically, socially, and spiritually.
Our educational philosophy reflects our belief in God’s kingdom values. When the Dominican Republic’s Minister of Higher Education commended our university for its “invaluable contribution to educating thousands of professionals,” he recognized more than academic excellence; he acknowledged an education system that transforms communities.
In Rwanda, where the government partnered with us to expand higher education, the Prime Minister praised our “longstanding commitment to education,” noting how faith-based education advances not just knowledge but character. Our students graduate with a vision to serve others, carrying forward the values of the New Earth into their careers and communities.
Every child who learns to read in our schools, every nurse who graduates from our universities, every farmer trained in sustainable agriculture—they’re all part of God’s plan of preparing people for the New Earth. We teach because we believe that in God’s kingdom, every mind will reach its full potential, and we’re starting that transformation today.
