About Adventist Community Services
The mission of Adventist Community Services ACS is to serve the community in Christ’s name (General Conference Sabbath School, 2008). The purpose of this ministry is not only to proclaim the Good News, the word of salvation, but also to demonstrate the love of God to people who are in need. Throughout Jesus’ ministry there is evidence of a genuine approach toward humanity; especially people who were marginalized, disadvantaged, and disenfranchised from society. These included the poor, the sick, the unclean, the prostitutes, and tax collectors—all outcasts as sinful people. Jesus expanded the Kingdom of God to places, people, and cultures that the Jews had never considered God to be interested in and has thus set these examples for many (Matt 9:10, 21:31, Rom 14:14).

Collection of Non-Perishable Items and Toiletries
Our Community Service Department is here to give help to local people in their time of need.
At any moment, someone in our community is in desperate need of food so, we're asking you to provide non-perishable foods such as jars (e.g. jams), packets (e.g. pasta, pasta sauce), tins (e.g. fruit, soup, vegetables) and toiletries etc.
However, we can't do this on our own. We would really like you to join us in supporting those less fortunate that together we can make a real difference.
There is a collection point in the Foyer, please be kind enough to place your donations there. Anything you can give will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
