Prayer Thought
Anger
James 1:19,20
“Anger is one of those emotions that comes in every shape and size from
quick and reactionary to slow burning. There are few things in this life
that can zap our spirit more quickly. When you’re tempted to rant and
rave, take a deep breath, gather your thoughts, pray, and then and only.
Then speak. Leave the rest up to God” The Bible Promise Book, p9
Let us pray for the Lord to take anger away from us and to make us
more like Him..

Early detection and treatment of diabetes can decrease the risk
of developing complications and harmful effects of diabetes such
as damage to the eyes, heart, blood vessels, nervous system,
teeth and gums, feet and skin, or kidneys. Studies show that
keeping blood glucose, blood pressure and low-density lipoprotein
cholesterol levels close to normal can help prevent or delay these
problems.

About Our Church
Sermon Notes
Speaker:
Elder Franklin Davidson
Our church began in 1922 when a group of Christians sought
to diligently study the scripture. In so doing, they discovered
that the rightful day of worship was the seventh-day Sabbath
which was Saturday. An outgrowth of this study group was
the founding of the Ethan Temple Seventh-day Adventist
Church, which was organized in July 1923. The congregation
first met in a two-story house on Home Avenue. In 1926, as the
congregation grew, the church relocated to South Williams
Street where it remained until larger quarters were needed,
and the move was made to Oakridge Drive in 1963. We
remained there until 2008 when we relocated to our present
location at 4000 Shiloh Springs Road, Clayton, OH, with a
membership of more than 700 people. For more than 90 years,
this church
has preached the Three
Angels’
Messages
in
the
Dayton
community and given birth to two additional congregations –the
New Life Seventh-day Adventist Church and the Hillcrest
Seventh-Day Adventist Church. Dr. Joe I. Grider is our
th
25 pastor.
Scripture:
John 9:6-11
Title:
“A Healthy Way of Seeing Things”
Our Mission and Vision
_______________________________________________________
The mission of the Ethan Temple Seventh-day Adventist
Church is to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all the
people in the Dayton, OH, area. In so doing we want our
neighbors and friends to see us as a church that is looking
forward to Christ’s coming, exemplifying His centeredness,
His compassion, and carrying out His commission. In order to
achieve our mission and vision, we must be a Spirit-filled
group of people who has God as the focus of our existence
through worship, Bible study, Christian fellowship, and outreach programs witnessing to others of Christ’s soon return.
Our Wish
