Why do we go to church on Sunday?
Brought up in the Church of England, whilst still a child, Joan questioned why she went to church on Sunday instead of Saturday, the day God had made holy. Nobody could answer her questions and it troubled her. As she read her Bible, she kept finding other things to question but the only answer she ever got was, "This is what we do."
Joan worshipped and served faithfully in her church all her life but she continued to be troubled by the unanswered questions. Finally, she asked God to find her a church that observed the seventh-day Sabbath...
Joan's prayers were answered; God pointed her to a church just 7 miles from her home - the Grantham Seventh-day Adventist Church. Joan was full of joy to find a church which studies and follows Bible teaching and when she heard there was a baptism planned, asked to be included.
Following a crash course on what Seventh-day Adventists believe, Joan Lees was baptised alongside two candidates from Newark Seventh-day Adventist Church on September 9th, 2023.
Welcome, Joan, to your new church family.
