On Easter Sunday we had a Sonrise service at Vaño beach with about
90-100 in attendance and where 7 were baptized. Brother Erwin did
the message and Pastor Gerry did the baptism message and the actual
baptism. Many unbelievers heard the message from our group and
other groups around us. Many seeds were planted this day.

to be able to attend the CC
Downey Men’s Advance held at
Thousand Pines Camp in the

based on Philippians 3:13-14.
The speakers were Pastor Glenn,
Pastor Hector, Pastor Yuri and Phil
Moreno from CC Downey as well
as Pastor Garid Beeler from CC
Costa Mesa ad Pastor Andrew
Cochran from CC Long Beach. It
was a good time of refreshing and

cold for a boy from the
Philippines).
