Quick News from Jane
Hello SCNC Folk!
 
Just a genuinely 'quick' Quick News.  This morning I checked in with our Hemet, Palos Verdes and LaCanada churches and learned that the church facilities are safe but some members are under either voluntary or even mandatory evacuations.  Plus smoke is very heavy.  Let's keep the folk of all these communities and the firefighters in our prayers and continue as the season progresses.
 
Unbelievably, tomorrow I leave for the Global Ministries Study and Partner Support trip to Palestine-Israel (and no, I'm not even really packed yet!).  We start Sunday with a day of training in Newark and actually leave Monday. 

With the exception of our wonderful Virginia Arroyo, who is on vacation until Sept 15, the rest of our staff is available to you and ready to assist with any needs.
 
Blessings to you all,

Jane
