SUNDAY MISSIONARY WORK



"Sunday can be used for carrying forward various lines of work that will accomplish much for the Lord. On this day open - air meetings and cottage meetings can be held. House-to-house work can be done...Whenever it is possible, let religious services held on Sunday. Make these meetings intensely interesting. Sing genuine revival hymns, and speak with power and assurance of Saviour's love. Speak on temperance and on true religious experience. You will thus learn much about how to work, and will reach many souls..."Maranatha 178.3


Our work in the near future will be centered on Sunday missionary work that "when we devote Sunday to missionary work, the whip will be taken out of the hands of the arbitrary zealots who would be well pleased to humiliate Seventh-day Adventist..." Maranatha 178.2
Not that we will wait for this grand Sunday missionary work to commence to start this work but it is now a high time to make this day a Missionary Day to prepare ourselves for this grand work.

Yes, the Royal Valley SDA brethren make it a point to use this day for various missionary endeavors. At 9am to 12 noon, our Women's Ministry share the gospel to the inmates of Maa, Davao City Jail. They also visit the families of the inmates. Spiritual guidance to the family as well as material things are shared to the members of the families of the inmates.



In the afternoons, members of the choir gather for practice to share also the gospel through this ministry. After this, some of the members are bound for our radio program which aired in Radyo Ukay DXUM in Davao City and Charm Radio FM in Kidapawan City.


To most of the brethren Sunday is a 9(am) to 9(pm) missionary endeavor.


SDARM Fellowship at RVSDA Church




August 29 - The Royal Valley SDA Church brethren was surprised and happy that SDARM brethren from different churches (Tagum City, Digos City, Davao City, Kibalang, Bukidnon) held their fellowship in our church. Brief text messages passed to church officers on that week to get ready for the special fellowship and with open arms they were welcomed and always welcome in our church.


It was really a blessing to the church as their church pastors, most of them doctor of naturopathy share health reformation lecture in the afternoon. Their Bible students at Digos City also grace the program by giving special songs.


We are looking forward that they can again visit our church or we can visit their churches, for empowering each other in working with the Lord especially in these last days.
