Family Ministries

OUR MISSION

The goal of the Family Ministries Department is to help grow and strengthen families in their relationships to God and each other.

FAMILY MINISTRIES RESOURCES

The 2023 Family Ministries Resource Book—emphasizing Family and Mental Health—will serve as a valuable resource for pastors, Family Ministries leaders, and members who are dedicated to supporting families, not only with their emotional health issues, but also their spiritual wellbeing, and be able to live out our vision of I Will Go with My Family.

You can download the resource along with presentation files HERE.

It’s a great resource for creating a family-focused theme for the year.

Resilience. It’s something needed in the time in which we’re living. Strong families. Families who worship together. Pray together.

The General Conference Family Ministries Department is offering a free resource for 2022 that’s filled with sermons, seminars, power points, children’s stories, and leadership resources which have all been created by Adventist leaders from around the world.
