Its 700 churches, schools, hospitals, and other organizations aim to transform lives through faithful Christian discipleship that focuses on meaningful engagement in local communities. Adventists in the Pacific Union Conference believe that all people are precious to God and we treat everyone with love and respect, recognizing that life is complicated, people are works in progress, and God is busy in the lives of everyone we meet.
