More about the Health Department of the Adventist Church
The Seventh-day Adventist Church reiterates its commitment to the principles of human dignity and equity, social justice, freedom, self-determination, access to clean food and water, and non-discriminatory universal access to available health care. Through its ministry of preaching, teaching, healing, and discipling, the Church seeks to achieve several priorities: represent the mission of Jesus Christ in such a way as to be regarded globally as teaching a wholistic model of evidence-based healthful living in primary health care; be seen at all times as a trusted, transparent ally of organizations with compatible goals and vision, in alleviating suffering and addressing basic health and well-being; be recognized for the unconditional scope of its embrace of all persons seeking this basic health and well-being; and be involved not only administratively but also functionally at every level, including each congregation and church member in this ministry of health and healing.
