Dear ASI UK Members, Supporters, and Friends, Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is with great humility and gratitude that I greet you as the newly appointed President of Adventist laymen's Services and Industries UK. I want to begin by sincerely thanking every one of you—our faithful members, dedicated supporters, partners in ministry, and friends—for your unwavering commitment to the mission of ASI UK. Your prayers, time, resources, and spiritual gifts have been instrumental in enabling this organisation to thrive. Whether through your businesses, professional roles, or personal service, each of you plays a vital part in proclaiming Christ in the marketplace and beyond. I also want to honour and thank our outgoing president, Daniel Klop, for his leadership and faithful service. His dedication has brought growth and unity to our organisation, and we are deeply grateful for the foundation he has laid. As I step into this role, I do so prayerfully, recognising that this is God’s work, not ours. Together, we will seek innovative ways to serve, witness, and support each other in our callings—advancing the mission of the Seventh-day Adventist Church through our businesses, professions, and ministries. Let us move forward with courage, compassion, and conviction, inspired by the words of Colossians 3:23: “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.”Jesus is coming back soon! Thank you once again for your trust, support, and partnership in this work. I look forward to serving with you in this new season.

Everyone, whether minister or lay member, is God’s ambassador, executing His work.” 3LtMs, Ms 7, 1882, par. 28
