Adventist church history tugs at the heart. In the Southern-Asia Pacific Division, the locals started to write their own stories. Southern-Asia Pacific Division (SSD): Home of the beautiful diversity
SSD is one of the 13 global divisions of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists (GC). All in all, it houses 14 countries. It also has five of the major non-Christian world religions like Islam and Buddhism. With these diversities, the history of the church started with a humble beginning. Through passion and dedication of pioneer leaders and members, the church grew and kept growing. The Adventist missionaries and local church members brought God's Word through literature evangelism coupled with the medical ministry. Many of the stories tell about how people brought the gospel in their workplaces. Even in their migration to the different places in Asia, they share their faith.
