He also spoke highly of practical contributions of the Vietnam Adventist Church in charitable activities and environment protection.

The Chairman also expressed hope that the Seventh-day Adventist world church would  further support the Vietnam Adventist Church and encourage its followers to make practical contributions to the country.

Pastor Ted Norman Clair Wilson took the chance to thank State authorities of Vietnam, including the GCRA for support extended to religious affairs of the Vietnam Adventist Church over the past years, including the approval for the church to establish its training school in the country.
