Ministries

Health Ministry

Our Health Ministry team offers resources and guidance to members and the local community regarding Health and Nutrition. Information on these topics are obtained from the writings of both Church Pioneer, Ellen G. White and many more recent researchers and practitioners. Vegetarian Cooking methods and recipes are a particular present-day need. Demonstrations of these are scheduled throughout the year. Our Health Ministry team may be contacted via the Contact page to arrange notification of the next event or answer enquiries. (Note that the inspired writings of E G White, though penned more than 150 years ago, are confirmed by subsequent and current authors).

Adults

All Welcome. Our church is located adjoining the Caloundra Adventist Retirement Village. This is convenient for residents of the Village, who comprise the majority of members. Whilst we dearly love to welcome all ages, we at present do not have any kids, teens or young adults as members. Hence we are ill-equipped to conduct regular activities for these ages. As soon as we gain young family members with children or teens, we hope to accommodate them with regular Sabbath School and other appropriate programs. In the meantime, we will do our best to provide a Sabbath School class, etc. for every visiting young person. If you are a visiting member of another Adventist church and possess skills or experience in this field, perhaps you may like to help us to cater for your young family? Please join us! We can guarantee that your kids can have engagement with lots of virtual "Grandparents" on the day ::-) LOL.

Tranquil and relaxed, yet located close to Caloundra’s shopping and business precinct, it is just a short drive to the beautiful beaches of the Sunshine Coast. Two belts of untouched rainforest protects our wildlife and gives residents the opportunity to experience nature as it was meant to be.
