At this time, we have title to building 773 itself, but we do not own the land under and around it.<\/p>\n We are asking all friends and members to collaborate and assist in any and all ways possible, financially, with their skills and time, so that we can make this purchase also a reality. \u00a0We ask you to give generously, as you are willing and able.<\/p>\n Please contact\u00a0Leslie, our church secretary, for details on how you can make donations to this fundraising, or contact one of the Council members for more details if you have any questions.<\/p>\n We would appreciate greatly any volunteers that can assist with either:<\/p>\n in Spanish as we progress on this project.<\/p>\n We would also appreciate feedback and constructive suggestions regarding content of the website which should be updated at this time. \u00a0We appreciate any and all assistance that can be given. For volunteering or simply providing feedback about the website, please write to us at the newsletter email address.<\/p>\n We are waiting for confirmation on our speaker for this coming week, and will send out a special notice with the details.<\/p>\n Our speaker in the Spanish\u00a0service this coming Sunday, June\u00a019th will be Joel Guerra.<\/p>\n We will be selling lunch,\u00a0as a fundraiser for our Mission\u00a0program. \u00a0Please \u00a0call to the office 314-1004\u00a0for the Menu and to make any orders.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n All members of the congregation are welcome to sit in on council meetings, where they may ask to have a voice to participate in any discussions. <\/p>\n Douglas and Aleta Shepler arrive for their 3 month Sabbatical, joining Balboa Union Church as missionary pastors.<\/p>\n They will be with us until the end of September.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pastor Bill is progressing and today he had the results of its last \u00a0blood \u00a0test and his\u00a0account of creatine continues to decline but is still above the normal range.<\/p>\n Thank you for praying!<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Disculpa, pero esta entrada est\u00e1 disponible s\u00f3lo en English.
