On September 27, 2025, the Loma Linda Indonesian SDA Church gathered for a historic day of gratitude and celebration. The congregation held a mortgage burning ceremony, marking the payoff of their church loan and celebrating the blessing of financial freedom.
The milestone was honored through a special dedication and consecration service, followed by a joyful fellowship potluck.
Centered on the theme “Milestone of Mercy, Memories of Mission” (1 Samuel 7:12), the service highlighted God’s faithfulness in sustaining the church and the dedication of members who poured their time, resources, and prayers into building not just a sanctuary, but a spiritual home. Patty Marruffo Southeastern California Conference (SECC) Executive Secretary, shared words of encouragement, rejoicing with the congregation in this achievement and offering prayers for continued blessings.
It was a day filled with gratitude, joy, and hope, as the Loma Linda Indonesian Church looked back on God’s provision and forward to the ongoing ministry and mission ahead.
