Amid the accelerating pace of digital transformation, communication leaders from across the Seventh-day Adventist Church's Southern Asia-Pacific Division (SSD) convened for a three-day Communication Advisory, themed “Communication for Mission,” held April 6–8, 2026, at the Life Hope Center in Silang, Philippines.

The gathering brought together representatives from across the region to advance dialogue on mission alignment and branding architecture, with the shared goal of strengthening a unified voice that supports the church’s global mission.

The advisory featured sessions led by Carlito Quidet Jr., SSD Communication director, alongside the SSD Adventist Media Center team and Adventist General Conference Communication Director Alyssa Truman.

The event brought together communication directors who engaged in extensive discussions on leadership, strategies for leveraging social media platforms, content creation, and the effective integration of faith in the workplace.

Participants also addressed current communication challenges during the sessions. In one of her presentations, Truman emphasized the need for stronger collaboration, intentional training, and the development of adaptable strategies that can be implemented at both regional and local levels. She underscored the importance of cultivating a consistent and lasting presence that engages broader audiences and invites them to connect with the church. Central to this effort, she noted, is establishing a clear and recognizable brand identity that allows non-Adventists to encounter the Adventist Church’s message without confusion.

Above all, beyond technical skills, a Christ-centered character matters most. As workers in the communication department, their priority is to find ways to support the structure they are part of.

The advisory also introduced OneVoice27: Mission for All, a global initiative created for the purpose of getting the gospel to reach every corner of the world through the intentional use of various media platforms and content creation. The project calls for Adventist churches in local and regional scopes to take part in this year-long endeavor by creating content that can, by extension, help with the global cause.

Communication leaders aim to unify the image of the Seventh-day Adventist church online and “build bridges” that will connect people to churches and evangelistic communities, and guide them throughout the beginning of their spiritual journey.

OneVoice27 is set to launch on September 5, 2026, under the theme “All Things New,” reflecting the Adventist Church’s commitment to leading more people to Christ through digital evangelism.

Truman clarified that OneVoice serves as an internal message, guiding church members to remain aligned with the initiative's central direction and fostering unity in communication. In contrast, “All Things New,” inspired by Revelation 21, is the public-facing message, offering hope and healing through the promise of renewal in Jesus and inviting communities to experience a transformed life in Him.
