New Life - Hampton Completes Phase 1 of Renovation Project

The New Life Seventh-day Adventist Church in Hampton, VA joyfully celebrated the completion of Phase 1 of its renovation project, after several weeks of work and unforeseen challenges marking the transformation of its sanctuary into a vibrant, multipurpose LIFE Center a space designed to serve both the congregation and the wider Hampton community.

The milestone Sabbath was filled with praise, gratitude, and vision. Pastor Dana Edmond, representing the Office of Regional Conference Ministries, delivered a powerful message during worship and later led an engaging Lunch & Learn session on “The History, Legacy, and Relevance of Regional Conferences.” His presentation reminded attendees of the spiritual heritage and ongoing evangelistic mission of regional conferences across the nation. 5 individuals responded to the appeal after the powerful message, and the church was fired up for its upcoming Compassion Project which began on November 5, and ends on November 15th. 

Among the distinguished guests was Vice Mayor Brown of Hampton, VA, who joined in celebrating this community-centered achievement. Following the worship service, members and guests reconfigured the newly renovated space to host the interactive lunch and learn session.

The day was a true celebration of faith, unity, and forward momentum, honoring both the church’s historic roots and its renewed commitment to serving the community through its new LIFE Center.
