Friends of Hope Day (Visitor’s Day), coordinated by the General Conference Department of Sabbath School and Personal Ministries, will be held on Sabbath, 11 April 2026. This special day encourages churches to open their doors widely to guests, friends, family members, and neighbours, helping them feel welcomed and valued within the church community.

Congregations are invited to plan services and activities that foster connection, hospitality, and friendship. The day provides an opportunity to build relationships, follow up with previous visitors, and introduce people to the hope found in Christ and the fellowship of the church family.
