Adventists
Awaiting Christ's return
Adventists are members of Christian denominations that emphasize the imminent second coming of Jesus Christ.
The largest group, Seventh-day Adventists, observes Saturday as the Sabbath and follows dietary restrictions including vegetarianism.
The movement emerged from 19th-century American millennialism: The Adventists down the street invited us to their church picnic.
