We’d like to welcome Don Pernites in our church family!

Can you tell us a little about yourself?

I like challenge and dynamics. That is why I ended up in Metropolitan SDA church. I am also a risk taker. Perhaps, that is the reason why I came to Houston where I have no relatives and friends in the beginning.

I am currently doing graduate studies in Chemistry/Chemical Biology at the University of Houston.

I like spending time with my wife and watching movies, aside from doing my research dealing with dangerous/hazardous chemicals.

Why did you choose Metropolitan?

The church is like a one big family. The church is alive, dynamic, innovative, and gifted with many talents. With the active involvement of the youth and the full support of the parents/leaders of the church, I could see a bright future ahead. This is the place where I want to grow my children. Moreover, the church members are very accommodating and helpful to newcomers.

I have never found a church as kind and generous as the Metropolitan SDA church. I had been to different churches in Singapore and Houston, but Metro SDA Church is remarkable and stunningly generous and supportive.

Lastly, the church is spiritual and Christ-centered.

I am very glad to share my insights about the church.

Would you like to say any other thing to our readers and members?

Focus on Christ and not on the church physical attributes, including its members. Keep in mind that there is no perfect church. I am very certain that a perfect church is nowhere to be found in this world.

Having Christ in a church is what matters most to me, and that is what we need.
