The growth of the Seventh Day Adventist Church has evolved through three periods of clearly defined developments, says the President of the Solomon Islands Mission, Pastor George Fafale.
Pastor Fafale explains the first period is the pioneering period which started in May 1914, when pioneer Griffith Jones and his wife Marion brought the gospel to Solomon Islands.
He says this is the period where local early converts joined expatriates who established schools and medical services – the two main wedges that split the powers of heathenism, and opened up the work of the gospel in Solomon islands.
