Success Story

Princeton SDA Church

About Princeton SDA Church

 

You are nervous, a first-time visitor. You see several groups chatting and laughing between your car and the church door. Anxiety and uncertainty sit on your chest, as you will your feet to walk towards the church entrance. You make it inside. While you scan the chairs, hoping for an empty one towards the back, a friendly face catches your eye. She walks towards you and encourages you to sit with her. Slowly all the nervousness flows out of your body, replaced with a sense of warmth and belonging.

A friendly invitation to sit turns into invitations to prayer calls, Bible studies, and weekly lunches. With more visits, you do not feel like a stranger anymore. You are part of the family, loved and cherished.

A warm welcome is the Princeton way. They strive to widen their circle of brotherly and sisterly love by fostering a deeper understanding of scripture. Together, they grapple with the question:  How can we build God’s kingdom in impactful ways?

 

BELIEFS

Princeton believes there are seven essentials to having a vibrant relationship with Jesus:  Scripture, Salvation, Sanctuary, Sabbath, Second Coming, Spirit of Prophecy, and Service. The Seventh-day Adventist Church seeks to enhance the quality of life for people everywhere and to let people know that Jesus is coming again soon.
