One hundred and twenty-five Adventist individuals, groups, churches and organisations were recognised for exemplary service on Saturday during the 125th anniversary celebration of Adventism in Jamaica, held at the Seventh-day Adventist Conference Centre in Montego Bay, St James.
The awardees were selected for their efforts in various ministries of the church, namely publishing, education, health, community service, pastoral ministry, youth and evangelism and drawn from the more than 740 congregations islandwide along with the church’s two institutions – Andrews Memorial Hospital (AMH) and Northern Caribbean University (NCU).
Pastor Everett Brown, president of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Jamaica, said: “These awardees exemplify the zeal, the labour, the dedication to duty that make the Church, the remnant Church of God, this Seventh-day Adventist Church, the bastion that it is today.”
