The Seventh Day Adventist Church is a big group that does similar things all around the world. They live and worship in different places, but the 21 million members are more than just a religious community—they’re like a family.

It can be hard for them to feel close because they’re spread out. One way they try to feel more together is by celebrating special days and events together, even though they’re in different time zones. These special days help them feel connected and also make them more aware of important issues like preventing abuse, supporting families, and protecting religious freedom.
