Pastor ordenado, profesor, abogado y administrador, Gröschel cuenta con más de 25 años de experiencia en liderazgo en entornos educativos, legales y eclesiásticos tanto en Brasil como en Estados Unidos. Desde el 2019, ha servido en la Potomac Conference como pastor, más recientemente en la iglesia de Waynesboro (Virginia), a la vez que enseña filosofía, teología y derecho en la Washington Adventist University en Takoma Park, Maryland.

Many years ago, while a college student, a good friend gave me a book that would change my life forever. The book is titled “Living God’s Love” by the author Douglas Cooper. For me, the most profound aspect of this book was Cooper's definition of love.

His definition resonated with me so strongly that I memorized it and have used it countless times since. On page 126, here’s how Douglas Cooper defines love. He says, “Loving is using one’s God-given power of choice, to do or say, that which is in the best good or interest of another, regardless of feelings.”

As the Potomac Conference begins its new quinquennium, there is much for which we must be grateful. And as you can imagine, there are far too many blessings to list. But there is one thing we, as a conference, are thankful for and would be remiss not to mention—over the past five years, God has been incredibly faithful to His people. And His faithfulness has little to do with our faithfulness to Him. Rather, God’s faithfulness in the lives of His people has more to do with His goodness than it does with anything else.

After years of planning, prayer and perseverance through multiple delays, the congregation joyfully marked this milestone, honoring its past while embracing a fresh beginning in a new location.
