Moderators John317 Posted February 25, 2009 Moderators Posted February 25, 2009 Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2009 Pa. Catholic church becomes Seventh-day Adventist - The Associated Press HAZLETON, Pa. — A former Roman Catholic church in northeastern Pennsylvania is becoming a house of worship for Seventh-day Adventists. A 16-member congregation is fixing up the Hazleton building and plans the first service there March 7. The group had been renting space at another church in Hazleton one day a week. Unlike most other Christian denominations, Seventh-day Adventists hold services on Saturdays. Real estate agent Robert Nilles says he was surprised to find a buyer planning to use the building for a house of worship. He says there had been other prospective buyers who were thinking of a secular use for the real estate.

True-believer Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Were the whole 16 people congregation former catholic and they transfered their faith and religion and also stayed in the same Church building. The whole Church were former catholics???? Well, praise God!!!!!!!! Quote Luke 4:19To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
Moderators John317 Posted February 25, 2009 Author Moderators Posted February 25, 2009 There have been whole congregations who accepted the Sabbath and other doctrines and became SDAs, but in the case of this particular Catholic Church, I think it is a matter of just the building being used by Adventists.
