The Kencot Seventh-day Adventist Church's third annual Stewardship and Expo, held on September 30, 2026, focuses on promoting health and wellness within the community. The event, which took place at the V.H. Percy Centre on Osbourne Road in Kencot, operated under the theme ‘Building God’s Kingdom Through Healthy Stewardship’.

The expo offered a range of free medical services, including vascular checks conducted with the Diabetes Association of Jamaica, as well as screenings for blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol, and body mass index. Additionally, dental checks and a seniors’ massage parlour were available.
