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..

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.
