Direct my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me (Ps. 119:133 NIV).

Karen Gleason, Editor

BEAVERTON, ORE.—In March, Jason Zacher ran 100 miles—from Portland to Lincoln City—to raise money for two charities, including The Salvation Army Veterans and Family Center in Beaverton. He ran the “Angels Flight 100” in about 23 hours.

Donations are still being accepted for a wheelchair ramp and a handicap accessible shower. Checks may be mailed to The Salvation Army Cascade Divisional Headquarters, 8495 SE Monterey Ave., Happy Valley, OR 97086, with “Angels Flight 100” in the memo line.

Richard Stoller is director at the Veterans and Family Center.

 

MONTEREY, CALIF.—Coffee Mia in Marina, Calif., celebrated five years of successful business with a gift to the Monterey Peninsula Corps. Business owner Horace Mercurio wanted to honor his deceased mother, Gloria Mercurio, who served for many years on the corps’ advisory board, holding many offices including chairperson. Mercurio held a birthday party raffle and was able to present a $400 check to the corps.

Majors David and Gaylene Yardley are the corps officers.

 

EL CENTRO, CALIF.—Corps Officers Captains Jerry and Vicky Esqueda reported that a newly-married couple called the corps to inquire if The Salvation Army does marriage counseling. After hearing more about the Army, the couple came to the Sunday service. At the altar call, both of them came forward to receive the saving grace of Jesus Christ.

 

WRANGELL, ALASKA—The Adventure Corps Rangers are working on the lifesaving badge. Captain Debra Davis, corps officer with her husband, Ronnie, arranged for the group to take a CPR/first aid class with the local fire department. Five teens and three adults participated and are now certified.

Guardian Flight (an air ambulance service) provided a grant to fund the class. The gentleman processing the grant remembered being helped by The Salvation Army and was eager to provide the assistance.

 

ANTIOCH, CALIF.—The corps celebrated the one-year anniversary of its new building on March 3 with a celebration including a brief history of the corps’ early days. It originally opened in 1887, but closed in 1890. In 1991, 101 years later, the work reopened, first as an outpost of the Concord Corps and then as a corps. Since then, it has grown and now conducts programs for all ages and provides social services to Antioch and the surrounding Delta communities

Majors Neil and Beth Saunders are the corps officers.

 

MODESTO, CALIF.—Salvation Army youth director Wade Patton and seven kids from the corps, ages 7-12, created a full-color activity brochure and assembled 60 bags of candy to give to children who come to the corps’ social services office, hoping to interest them in the corps programs and activities.

Lt. Colonels Richard and Bettie Love are the interim corps officers.

 

LEWISTON, IDAHO—Each week the corps, led by Captains Ralph and Margaret Guthrie, welcomes Young Life to meet in its youth center; almost 50 youth and about 17 leaders attend. Some of the group’s leaders have attended the corps’ Sunday worship service.

The corps is also building a connection with the Northwest Children’s Home. The young people’s sergeant-major, who works there, has brought a few of the teen boys to the youth center, and recently four youth from the home attended worship service—one of them participated as the day’s drummer.

 

MODESTO, CALIF.—Salvation Army youth pastor Wade Patton and seven kids from the corps, ages 7-12, created a full-color activity brochure and assembled 60 bags of candy to give to children who come to the corps’ social services office, hoping to interest them in the corps programs and activities.

Lt. Colonels Richard and Bettie Love are the interim corps officers.
