Reflecting Hope Health Checks Event at Exeter

In a demonstration of its commitment to community service, the Exeter Seventh-day Adventist church dedicated the Sabbath 28 September to providing free health checks. We are deeply grateful to the team of dedicated volunteers and professionals who generously offered their time and expertise, serving almost 50 people invited to take the tests using the premises of St Stephen's Anglican Church on Exeter's High Street.

The medical tests of peak flow, blood pressure, body mass index, blood sugar, cholesterol, and a health age questionnaire, which helps individuals understand their overall health and risk factors, were completed by the medical advice and expertise of Dr Lincoln Sergeant, Head of Public Health Dept of Torbay Council, who volunteered to help for the day and is also a member of Torquay SDA Church.

The project team had meaningful conversations with people from different backgrounds, and we are delighted to share that the event received overwhelmingly positive feedback from those who participated, reinforcing the success of our efforts and inspiring us all with the positive impact we've made.

ACFM District Day of Fellowship: A Call to Revival and Mission

On 7 June 2025, the Ashford, Canterbury, Folkestone, and Margate churches united for a District Day of Fellowship under the theme “Revive Us Again.” With SEC President Dr Kirk Thomas as guest speaker, the event stirred hearts toward renewed mission. His sermon—centred on obedience and revival—concluded with a powerful story and appeal that led to a baptismal decision and several recommitments. The day celebrated unity, service, and spiritual renewal across the district.
