What a marvelous and wondrous Advent Season we are having. Our prayer is for you to experience God’s presence and the blessings of His spirit; to be filled in abundance with
We are excited you have chosen to worship with us today. We hope you find our fellowship warm and friendly, the message meaningful and practical, and that you encounter God in a life-transforming way. Please take a moment and fill out the Guest Card located in the seat in front of you and place it in the offering bag as it is passed. If you are a first time guest, take the card to the Welcome Counter in the foyer at the end of the service to receive a special “Thank you” gift. If you have children with you, we encourage you to take advantage of our preschool and children’s worship. They will have a great time. *

Go Tell It On The Mountain
I am a follower of Jesus Christ who is striving to impact this world for Him by loving and leading my family, serving His people and leading His ministry at California Baptist Foundation. I lead California Baptist Foundation to fulfill its purpose of serving Baptists by raising and managing resources for kingdom causes. We work with faithful stewards and their lifetime giving as well as their estate plans. As dollars flow to our endowments and trusts we manage those resources and distribute earnings to individuals, churches, schools, and other ministries.
