Seventh-day Adventist Church Offices for the Pacific Southwest

Thank you for visiting the website of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the Pacific southwest, with offices in Westlake Village, California, USA.

From here you can find links to local conferences, local churches, and specialized ministries, as well as information about the Seventh-day Adventist church in general, and the Pacific Union Conference.

About 210,000 members of the Adventist Church live in Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada and Utah. Those members worship in 658 local congregations, which are grouped into seven conferences. Together, those local conferences comprise the Pacific Union Conference -- one of nine union conferences in the North American Division. There are 14 million Seventh-day Adventists around the world, including one million in the NAD.

Nearly 42 million individuals of European, Hispanic, African, Asian/Pacific, and American Indian ancestry live in the five southwestern states comprising the Pacific Union. Every Sabbath God's Word is preached in the Pacific Union in approximately 30 different languages.
