This collection consists of a single photo album that documents, housing, local life and customs, cremation ceremonies, animals, and Seventh Day Adventist Missions in various Southern Pacific Locations.
Seventh-day Adventists are Christians who hold the bible as the ultimate authority. They look to Jesus Christ alone for salvation, believe the bible introduces you to the Christian God, they uphold the importance of the Sabbath, and have always prioritized mission work around the world. In the beginning of the 1900s, the Seventh-day Adventist Church reorganized their efforts in order to ensure their beliefs would be taught around the world. This began the push for missionaries to go out and spread their message. In the 1920s-1930s, the church sent out more than 100 missionaries worldwide.
