About Us
The Palmer Seventh-day Adventist Church exists to build a community that reflects the character of God.
The values of community and character motivate everything we do.
Being a Community: We love people! Our ministries connect people to build a faith community where we find belonging and support.
Reaching our Community: We are driven to neighbor well! Our faith community looks for ways to overflow abundantly in blessing to our broader community.
Pursuing God’s Character: Loving God is our great obsession! We pursue His character in our Bible teaching and worship.
Reflecting God’s Character: The character of God shapes the culture of our faith community! Individually and corporately, we want our character to reflect more of His!
28 Fundamental Beliefs
Seventh-day Adventists accept the Bible as the only source of our beliefs. We consider our movement to be the result of the protestant conviction Sola Scriptura—the Bible as the only standard of faith and practice for Christians.
Currently, Adventists hold 28 fundamental beliefs that can be organized into six categories—the doctrines of God, man, salvation, the church, the Christian life and last day events. In each teaching, God is the architect, who in wisdom, grace and infinite love, is restoring a relationship with humanity that will last for eternity.

Communications Team Lead
Monte Burtch
My passion would be family, work and how God interacts with both. I enjoy being with the family, whether it is working on a project at home, outdoors in an adventure, or just relaxing with everyone reading a good book. I am also a graduate and mentor at the Kois Center which helps Dentists reach the next level in clinical and patient care. What I strive for in my Christian walk is how to encourage a relationship with God and have religion be more of a relationship with Jesus than a set of do’s and don’ts. Email Monte
