Launching into Madera

The City of Madera is home to a little more than  60,000 people most of them being 75% hispanic, 17% Caucasian, 2% African American . The first few days were spent settling in; our host and house mother Teresa Berkebile (who has only been Adventist for a year!) showed us around town. Our home church is located on 520 N st. Madera, Ca 93637. Its a small old style brick church with a tall roof; its sits about 250 members young and old alike! Joey Manzanares our Crosstrainer has been getting us involved in the churches up coming event! We have a Glowathon, a Spiritual Friends class, and the Evangelistic Series coming up in February to get ready for! It is exciting to know that right off the starting line the church has us working on several project, its time to put our training to the test!
