Press release from: Advent Messenger

Churches, Local Communities, Governments, Businesses,

"Sunday Funday" is a term that is associated with making Sunday the day to take a break, relax, and have fun. Typically, it involves going to church, having a picnic, spending time with friends and family, playing games, or engaging in some other outdoor activity. This is part of a movement aimed at promoting the idea that Sunday should be a special day for rest, worship, family, and community.

A Lutheran Church recently posted the following about Sunday Funday:

"Sunday Funday - Join in the fun at Emmanuel Lutheran Church on Sunday, Sept. 10th from 10:30-12:00 noon. Enjoy food, jump on the moonbounce, participate in service projects, and meet new families and friends. It's a fun-filled gathering outside on the lawn. (We'll go inside in case of rain.) Everyone -- and we mean everyone -- is welcome." [1]

A Baptist church shared this invitation to celebrate Sunday and have fun:

"On Sunday, August 20, 2023, New Hope Baptist Church will host its Sunday Funday Backyard Party for the community of Hackensack. Attendees of all ages will be able to enjoy slip-slides, water games, ice cream, food, snacks, music, and more. There will be a back-to-school giveaway of school supplies as well as a $50 Chick-fil-A gift card awarded to the child who brings the most friends to church under the age of 18." [2]

City governments are also pushing Sunday as the day for fun on their official websites:

"Join the City of Citrus Heights for its annual Sunday Funday! On Sunday, September 24th, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Families can come to Rusch Community Park to enjoy this free event. The event will feature: Inflatables for kids, music, K-9 demonstrations, food trucks, and more family-fun! Sunday Funday is in partnership with Sunrise Recreation and Park District. This family-friendly event includes business, craft, non-profit, and service group vendors. All activities are free for attendees!" [3]

Even drag queens have adopted the popular trend of honoring Sunday as the day for fun. [4]

Sunday is being recognized as the day for social interaction and community cohesion in society. Sunday has become the common ground upon which to create a stronger, healthier, and more vibrant community for all its members. Sunday is fostering a sense of belonging to a universal fraternity that is bringing people together.

We know where all of this is headed. We have been told through inspiration that Sunday will be presented as the solution to heal society, but ultimately, this effort will lead the world to create a "bond" with Rome and will bring about the final crisis.

"Here the temperance work, one of the most prominent and important of moral reforms, is often combined with the Sunday movement, and the advocates of the latter represent themselves as laboring to promote the highest interest of society; and those who refuse to unite with them are denounced as the enemies of temperance and reform" (Great Controversy, p, 587).

"The leaders of the Sunday movement may advocate reforms which the people need, principles which are in harmony with the Bible, yet while there is with these a requirement which is contrary to God's law, his servants cannot unite with them. Nothing can justify them in setting aside the commandments of God for the precepts of men. Through the two great errors, the immortality of the soul, and Sunday sacredness, Satan will bring the people under his deceptions. While the former lays the foundation of Spiritualism, the latter creates a bond of sympathy with Rome" (Ibid., p. 587).

"The Protestants of the United States will be foremost in stretching their hands across the gulf to grasp the hand of Spiritualism; they will reach over the abyss to clasp hands with the Roman power; and under the influence of this threefold union, this country will follow in the steps of Rome in trampling on the rights of conscience" (Great Controversy, p. 588).
