~What's Happening~

We just arrived home from being in Santa Maria for a few days. The Santa Maria church holds a Mission Conference every year & this year we were blessed to get to be apart of it. Tim & Bro. Markham preached the services & it was powerful! Of course we always enjoy the fellowship of the church & getting to visit w/ the Keyes!

This past week we were honored to have Steve Pixler w/ us in Vacaville for 2 nights of revival. Awesome services! This man can sing & play the piano beautifully! It was a pleasure getting to know him better.

We are finally getting our soundboards hung back on the walls. The beginning of this remodel of the sanctuary we had to take them down to texture the walls & paint them. Now after a long process of trying to find material to wrap these 8ft x 4ft soundboards, we are now getting closer to the finishing touches of the remodel. We have six hung w/ only 14 more to go!:)

Happy New Year...better late then never!:) I am looking forward to this new year. Looking back over last year, I can't even imagine what this upcoming year is going to be like!:)Hope every ones Holidays were blessed w/ good memories.
We spent Christmas this year w/ my family. But we did do something a little different this year...we went to Disneyland for Christmas. What a blast! My niece Ella & nephew Bryce went on every ride they could...it was adorable. Ella road w/ me on Thunder Mountain & Space Mountain & the whole ride she had her hands up in the air screaming away. I loved it!:) The kids also did The House of Terror & Ella told me after the ride..."Danda, I came up off my seat when we dropped" LoL
We came straight home from Disneyland to have our New Year Eve service. It was so awesome. We did communion, feet washing & worshiped the old year out & the new year in...praise God. We also added another row of chairs on each side of the sanctuary by faith & that Sunday, God filled those chairs w/ visitors! As for the church there is alot going on...good things that is!:) We have been going through the process now for about a year to make the church antonymous & we are finally there. Believe me, it has been such a learning process going through all this paper work w/ the State. We are now officially The Pentecostals of Vacaville!
We have been blessed the past few days to have a family friend, Donna Brown, visiting w/ us. Yesterday my Aunt Gaylyne & I took her to San Francisco for the day & it couldn't have been a more beautiful day. It was like God had made that day just for her to get to walk down memory lane of when she & her late husband Lonnie had lived in San Rafael & worked at the Presidio in San Francisco when her daughter was just a baby. It was a beautiful day!
