Hi Parents,
I've rounded up a few ways that we can help our community in the midst of our worlds current pandemic. Of course, please use wisdom and discernment. Our government has called us to shelter in place, still we are also called to love our neighbor.
Prayer- "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer." - Romans 12:12
If you're in need of prayer any one of us would be happy to pray with you. Our church also has a prayer line 714-979-4422 (Press 2). We're here for you!
I'd also encourage you to use this time as an opportunity to teach your children about the importance of prayer. "Then you will call upon me and go and pray to me, and I will listen to you." - Jeremiah 29:12. We have multiple CCP families that are truly on the frontlines of this pandemic. I know they appreciate us interceding for them during this time.
Donate- "In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the vulnerable and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”- Acts 20:35
Local hospitals are accepting donations of gear. To view the full list of items accepted and how to donate click here.

Red Cross Blood Drive
Due to a lack of adequate space to follow safety protocols, many blood drives are being canceled. Mariners Church has the space and will be opening their Community Center on April 13, 16, 23 & 30th to the American Red Cross. They will be following all of our government's safety measures. If you are healthy and feel led to give to this critical need, you can sign up here.
We're truly in this together,
Miss Kat
