According to Ephesians 4:32, we should: “…be kind to another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake has forgiven you” and consequently, every year, the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Church hosts a series of events entitled ‘Week of Generosity and Day of Kindness.’
Executive secretary and treasurer at the North East Jamaica Conference of Seventh-day Adventists Pastor Adlai Blythe believes the event offers the Church an opportunity to lead by example in the field of community service.
He told Family and Religion “The Week of Generosity and Day of Kindness was started by the [SDA] World Church who saw the need to have one day of special community impact where we go beyond the regular kind gestures we do and offer something significant.
