Seventh-Day Adventist Church, George Town, Penang (5 August 2012)
The Seventh-Day Adventist Church on Burmah Road is the main church of the Seventh-Day Adventist movement in Penang. The church traces its roots back to 1924, when Dr Earl Gardner opened his first clinic at 108 Muntri Street, which today becomes the Penang Adventist Hospital.
Over the years, the congregation had outgrown the size of its existing church building, making it necessary for the church to consider putting up a bigger building. In December 1998, the old church building was demolished. The present new Adventist church building was completed at the end of 1999, allowing it to be occupied on 1 January 2000.
Services are on Saturday at 8:15 am for the English-speaking congregation and 11:00 am for the Chinese-speaking congregation, both held at the main Sanctuary. Services for the Tamil-speaking congregation is at 9:00 am on the first floor of Dewan Adventist, which is behind the main Sanctuary. Services are also conducted at the Penang Adventist Hospital and at a house church in Farlim.
The Seventh-Day Adventist Church is located at the junction of Burmah Road and Tavoy Road. Rapid Penang buses 101, 103 and 104 pass in front of the church.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
