Welcome
Christian faith in the Presbyterian tradition for you and your family

Our congregation does not pretend to provide everything for every person. You won't see a lot of flat-screens around, nor programs for every night of the week. What we have is great people who enjoy worshipping and serving together in Jesus' name. We are developing and growing in every way as we become all that God has intended for us.

There are a lot of great churches in Yorba Linda (and OC!). If you choose to worship God at YLPC, welcome!

Pastor Daniel

**Post-Fire Response to Our Friends in Need**

Dear YLPC Family,

We have many grateful people in our congregation today. I have heard countless stories of families and individuals who left their homes expecting that nothing would be standing when they returned (this was true of my family, too). As I visited and prayed with many people yesterday we rejoiced in God's provision.

We are all aware, however, that many of our friends and neighbors have experienced devastating loss. I met yesterday with the Fitkin family in front of what is literally the ashes of their home on San Antonio. I assured them that we are praying for them and that we want to assist them in any need. Both Liz and Wayne suggested that they will keep in contact with us as things settle down.

In light of these friends of YLPC--and the countless people we all know who are struggling through trauma--I would like to ask two things of you: 1) Please walk to your neighbors' house and see if you can help or serve them in any way. Be the hands and feet of Jesus; please don't wait for our church "organization" to do what you can do best. 2) Please let the church office know of any specific needs among your neighbors to which we can respond. (714-777-6822 or info@ylpc.org)

The most urgent need at this time is for gift cards for local grocery stores and fast food restaurants.

If you would like to help, please purchase the gift cards and drop them off either at the church office or the home of Amy Hedrick (5311 Pasatiempo Dr, Yorba Linda.) It is suggested that the gift cards be kept in lower dollar amounts ($10 -25) so they can either be bundled together or divided more evenly among those in need. The amount purchased would be at your discretion.

We have also provided some links below for further volunteer opportunities and donation information.

Local Red Cross Chapter List of Funds
Volunteer Information
Local Chapter Salvation Army
Brush Fire Information from the City of Yorba Linda (including information on the Local Assistance Center which was opened today)

We would like to take this time to thank you for your generous spirit and the many emails passed on for offers of assistance! We will keep you updated with any future information.

If you have any questions please call Amy Hedrick at 714 693-3868

God's grace to you!
