Kettering College began the first phase of renovations to the third floor of the female residence hall in May 2019.
The third-floor bathrooms, kitchen, lobby area, and the south and west halls now feature refinished floors, with updated ceiling tiles in the kitchen and lobby area. The rooms have been updated with California style closets, built in dressers, new lighting fixtures, memory foam mattresses, hardwood style flooring and Corian countertops for the desks, sinks and dressers.
Kettering Medical Center has funded the renovations, granting Kettering College a $1.2 million project budget, according to Nicholas Henson, director of Finance and Administration at Kettering College. For the first phase of renovations, $340,000 of it was used.

Alors que la Division Nord-Américaine verse actuellement 5,85% de sa dîme pour soutenir le travail de l'Eglise Adventiste du Septième Jour dans le monde entier, les délégués au Concile Annuel 2019 ont voté pour que, d'ici 2030, les 13 divisions de l'église mondiale remettent chacune un montant équivalant à 3% de leur dîme à la Conférence Générale.
En réponse à l'avertissement émis par le Concile Annuel de la Conférence Générale de 2019, le Comité Exécutif de l'Union de Fédérations de Columbia a voté pour « affirmer et exprimer son soutien indéfectible à la primauté de la Parole de Dieu; à la mission et aux croyances fondamentales de l'Église Adventiste du Septième Jour; à la croyance en la prophétie de Joël 2: 28-29; aux femmes pasteurs, aux anciens et dirigeants qui servent selon les règlements ; et au leadership de l’union. »
