Meet Our Pastor

He is committed to being a person of prayer, a servant leader, a team player, a visionary leader, and committed to the truths of the Bible.

Our Mission
The Mission of The Lighthouse SDA Church is to disciple and empower our members to be ministers, who lead others into a meaningful and saving relationship with Jesus Christ.
Our Beliefs
Seventh-day Adventists accept the Bible as their only creed and hold certain fundamental beliefs to be the teaching of the Holy Scriptures. These beliefs, as set forth here, constitute the church’s understanding and expression of the teaching of Scripture. Revision of these statements may be expected at a General Conference session when the church is led by the Holy Spirit to a fuller understanding of Bible truth or finds better language in which to express the teachings of God’s Holy Word.
Our Vision
The vision of The Lighthouse SDA Church is to be a body of transformed Christian believers who embrace, nurture, and provide refuge for all
