Make Your Home a Haven of God’s Love
Welcome to the website of the Family Ministries for the Seventh-day Adventist Church in North America.
We were created to connect with God and each other in healthy, loving relationships. However, after the fall, relationships were infected with power-struggles, selfishness and shame.
All of life is relationships. Relationships are a powerful vehicle for the transmission of God’s extravagant love and grace or for the transmission of destructive generational trauma.
God intended the family system to be the incubator for the physical, emotional, spiritual, and relational development of the next generation. A family cannot be healthier than the marriage, thus, the core of this incubator is the marital relationship or the caretakers of the family.
Spiritually and emotionally attuned parents can create healthy home environments that will empower their offspring to develop healthy perceptions of God, self and others which will help them construct and sustain spiritual, emotional and mental resilience.
As our families, communities and nation face unprecedented social and mental health challenges, we see providential opportunities to strengthen our family and community while we share Christ–as the ultimate relationship that heals, redeems and empowers broken sinners to display His contagious, healing love!
We invite you to join our NAD Family Ministries Department initiative Connect2Live, because our temporal and eternal lives depend on it.
Blessings and Victories in Jesus,
Dr. César & Carolann De León
