Sabbath School is where God’s Word comes alive, through real conversations, real expressions of faith, and real friendships. In Sabbath School, people get a chance to practice authentic community, consider ways to do evangelism, develop leadership skills in others, spiritually care for each other, and be equipped for the spiritual journey ahead.

Sabbath School and Adventist Community Services connects the church with the community through practical acts of service. Across the ACS network, people called by God offer help, encouragement and hope. Whether providing food and clothing, helping children learn to read, organizing job fairs or supporting communities after a disaster, ACS volunteers put God’s love and compassion into action. Through consistent service, and caring relationships, churches become trusted neighbors, walking alongside people through challenges and towards new possibilities.

Help children build a thriving relationship with Jesus and a lifelong love!

As a catalyst for vibrant youth ministry, it strengthens Pathfinders, TLT, AYM, and local church youth days while helping students build lasting connections to worship and the wider life of the church.
