DUE TO THE INCREASED RISK OF COVID INFECTIONS AT THIS TIME, WE HAVE MADE THE DIFFICULT DECISION TO POSTPONE THIS EVENT. PLEASE STAY TUNED FOR INFORMATION.

After years of planning, prayer, sacrifice, and anticipation, the new Granite Bay Hilltop Seventh-day Adventist Church has opened!

A dedication and celebratory service is planned for September 4, 2021. The community is invited to rejoice in the Lord’s work and dedicate this new evangelistic facility to the rapid spread of the three angels’ messages, God’s last warning to a dying world.

A full Sabbath of special events has been planned:

  • FRIDAY EVENING PROGRAM (September 3) AT 7:00 PM: Orchestra Program, Devotional, and Refreshments

  • FULL SABBATH PROGRAM (September 4), including morning sermon by Elder Ted Wilson

  • SABBATH LUNCH PROVIDED

  • SABBATH AFTERNOON PROGRAM with special guests and music by Kelly Mowrer

  • OPEN-HOUSE TOURS of Amazing Facts International and Granite Bay Hilltop Seventh-day Adventist Church buildings with refreshments

“We were planted as a congregation to serve a fast-growing area,” Doug Batchelor, senior pastor, said. “And now the ‘plant’ has put down roots in a permanent building, for which we praise God.” Hilltop held its first services in November 2020 for an evangelistic series called Revelation Now.

The Hilltop facility seats 1,500 and is wired for media ministry with international reach. The entire facility was designed to record and broadcast Sabbath School classes and church services, hallmarks of the Granite Bay Hilltop Church’s ministry.

The new church sits on the W.O.R.D. Center campus of Amazing Facts International, where Batchelor serves as president. Pastor Jëan Ross serves as associate pastor, with John Quedzuweit, outreach pastor; Shawn Brummund, family life pastor; and Luccas Rodor, youth pastor.
