His message, titled "Eden," will invite us to reflect on our God-given responsibility to care for the Earth. Here is a summary of his message: Tuesday was Earth Day.

Scripture Reading John 1:29-30 NKJV Greetings beloved Congregation and Friends of Palo Alto Adventist Church, John the Baptist makes a powerful declaration upon seeing Jesus in John 1:29: “Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” This moment is a turning point in the gospel narrative, as it reveals Jesus’ divine identity and mission. John identifies Jesus not merely as a teacher or prophet, but as the Lamb of God the one chosen to bear the world’s sin. This reveals the depth of God’s redemptive plan through Christ. In referring to the Passover lamb and sacrificial system, Jesus is presented as the ultimate and final sacrifice. His purpose is to cleanse and restore humanity, offering forgiveness, and reconciliation with God. Easter is an honor to no one but Christ our Lord and Palo Alto Church is honored to celebrate it in His honor. Let us behave like John and point others to Jesus. Believers today are called to behold Him with faith, follow His lead, and share the message of salvation with others. 🌐 Register for our Live Zoom Webinar: https://tinyurl.com/yc3vzk62 🔔 Stay connected with us on our journey of faith: 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://tinyurl.com/bderwssk 🌐 Visit our Website: http://www.paloaltoadventist.org 📘 Follow our Facebook page: https://tinyurl.com/4n8zcynh 📸 Follow us on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/bdxjx65h God Bless You, Happy Sabbath & Have a Great Week!

Scripture Reading Ephesians 2:17-22 Sermon Title "Strangers No Longer" Greetings beloved Congregation and Friends of Palo Alto Adventist Church, We are blessed to welcome Elder Bert Williams as our speaker this week. He will be presenting a sermon titled “Strangers No Longer”. Here is a summary of the message: Peter writes that followers of Jesus, "God's elect," are "strangers in the world" (1 Peter 1:1).

Scripture Reading Matthew 8:31-32 Greetings beloved Congregation and Friends of Palo Alto Adventist Church, We are delighted to welcome Elder Julian Lake back as our speaker this week. He will be presenting his message titled "Enemies Beyond". Summary Demons are a mysterious and scary part of the Biblical narrative. We know little about their nature and would typically view anyone who claimed to interact with demons with skepticism, and suspicion yet Jesus himself cast out demons. So what are we to make of these otherworldly entities? We look forward to an inspiring and thought-provoking sermon as he shares the word that God has placed on his heart. 🌐 Register for our Live Zoom Webinar: https://tinyurl.com/yc3vzk62 🔔 Stay connected with us on our journey of faith: 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://tinyurl.com/bderwssk 🌐 Visit our Website: http://www.paloaltoadventist.org 📘 Follow our Facebook page: https://tinyurl.com/4n8zcynh 📸 Follow us on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/bdxjx65h God Bless You, Happy Sabbath & Have a Great Week!

Scripture Reading Luke 12:16-21 NKJV Greetings beloved Congregation and Friends of Palo Alto Adventist Church, Summary This parable reminds us that true treasure is found not in what we keep, but in what we give. When we generously share our resources, time, and love with others, we invest in what truly matters. Building relationships, meeting needs, and advancing God’s kingdom matters. Earthly wealth fades, but the impact of giving lasts forever. As we reflect on this passage, let us remember that a life rich in generosity is a life rich toward God. Our true security lies not in possessions, but in a heart that treasures others and reflects God’s love. We come to this parable to find more hidden truths. May the Lord help us heed his warning and find the truth that adds value to our lives. 🌐 Register for our Live Zoom Webinar: https://tinyurl.com/yc3vzk62 🔔 Stay connected with us on our journey of faith: 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://tinyurl.com/bderwssk 🌐 Visit our Website: http://www.paloaltoadventist.org 📘 Follow our Facebook page: https://tinyurl.com/4n8zcynh 📸 Follow us on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/bdxjx65h God Bless You, Happy Sabbath & Have a Great Week!

Scripture Reading John 2:1-5 NKJV Sermon Title "Trust and Obey" Greetings, Beloved Congregation and Friends of Palo Alto Adventist Church, Summary Miracles are not just acts of divine power. They are also lessons of faith. The first miracle Jesus performed—turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana—was more than just an act to satisfy a need. It was a demonstration of trust and obedience. Through this event, we see how faith and submission to Christ leads to transformation. This is what we are about this week. 🌐 Register for our Live Zoom Webinar: https://tinyurl.com/yc3vzk62 🔔 Stay connected with us on our journey of faith: 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://tinyurl.com/bderwssk 🌐 Visit our Website: http://www.paloaltoadventist.org 📘 Follow our Facebook page: https://tinyurl.com/4n8zcynh 📸 Follow us on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/bdxjx65h God Bless You, Happy Sabbath & Have a Great Week!
