Safeguarding
As Seventh-day Adventists, we uphold a steadfast commitment to ensure that our churches are a safe place where every child and adult feels protected. In alignment with divine guidance, we echo the call of Proverbs 31:8 to be advocates for the voiceless and defenders of the vulnerable. Therefore, it is crucial for each member of our church to be acquainted with the ‘Keeping the Church Family Safeguarding Policy.’ Understanding and implementing this policy is essential for maintaining a safe environment for all.
