Memorial Day weekend May 23-26, 2008
April 17,2008
It’s that time of year again to pick up the hammer, to paint the walls, and to fall down on the bed and think of all the great stuff you did that day. That is, if you are not asleep by the time you hit the edge of the bed! (HA!) There is one sound I love to hear that weekend that goes above the laughter, it cries out more than the bleats of the goats, or is better than our people’s Spanish. The sound of the generator being turn off for the final time of the weekend. Shouting out in silence, a job well done! For that to happen, we need you there! I am really looking forward to participating in the Memorial Day weekend building trip on May 23-26. This event is for such a worthy cause, and I am very eager to have you on board with us this year.
As you may know, Central Community has provided homes for needy families and kids in Mexico. I am so thrilled to have been a part of each year’s building trip for each have been a blessing all within themselves. Through the combined generous contributions from you, especially through your hard work, we have been blessed to have 17 homes, 1 church and Siempre Para Los Ninos (our children home)
I am asking you to help Central Community to make this event another great success this year by offering your mind, your soul, and most of all, your body. The lives of others will be greatly enhanced by what your hands will do. The forth and final faze of Siempre will be build this year to support more kids and the Church community in Granjas. This years building will be our biggest yet. 3528 sq ft! It will include a 720 sq ft Dinning room, a kitchen to feed 64 people, 4 dorm rooms that will sleep 16 people each, 2 bathroom and a 2 bedroom home to house a Missionary.
Check out our sign-up/sponsorship form ( www.centralcommunity.com) outlining the various ways for you to help. Please make your check payable to Central Community or use your credit card. I ask that you please return your sign-up sheet and your deposit to me A.S.A.P. (TODAY!). If you would like to donate the cost of the lumber and materials, or you would like to sponsor someone to go this year, just call me at (951) 689-5806. If you have any questions just call.
I want you to know that I am completely committed to making this another success and have already started to plan for this a weekend. It will be a weekend that will change your life. Thank you in advance for your generous support, and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely yours,
Pastor Ken McDaniel

A loaf of Bread
To get a loaf of bread we walk into Staters Brothers pick it off the shelf and go to the check out and we are done. Probably will take you 5 minutes at the most. Amazing!
Me and Tricia went for a hike down Deer Creek trail the other day. At one point of the trail you come to Granite Rock. On that rock are holes the Cahuilla Indians used to grind the acorns and grain to make their bread and mush. The picture below is of those griding holes. 
They would have to collect the acorns and grains in the forest, grid them at Granite rock, take them back to their village, mix them with water, cook them and then they would have bread. Probably took them 5 hours. Amazing!
Take a hike today! Wonder what you will come upon?

Isle 8
Yesterday I had to run to Kinko’s to copy some of the legal paperwork for the land we had purchased for the next faze of Siempre, our Children home in Mexico. We hope that you will be going with us to build on May 23-26. Check out http://siemprekids.org/ for the reason’s why we go.
As I walked to Kinko’s I decided to get my hair cut while I was there next to Super Cuts. I would get two things done at once. The sign in lady told me I would have to wait 20min, so I went over to Sav-On Drug store to pick up a few things while I wanted for my hair to be cut.
As I was walking past isle 8 I noticed a man tearing a little box open and placing the object into his pants pocket. I went a few steps to isle 7 and said to myself, “THAT’S NOT RIGHT”. I walked up to the check out and told the lady at the registrar that the guy of isle 8 with the white shirt on was placing products into his pockets. The man that was being checkout at the time said “THAT’S NOT RIGHT”. Really weird that he would think that!
Then something happened that made me mad. She got on the intercom of the store and “YELLED OUT SECURITY TO ISLE 8. SECURITY TO ISLE 8”. She might a well said in the speakers “Sir, with the white shirt that is placing things into his pockets on isle 8, we are coming for you so you better put all that stuff back on the shelf before we get there—or your going to Jail. I said to myself “THAT’S NOT RIGHT”.
I walked out of the store and there outside was the security guard smoking a cigarette. I said to myself “THAT’S NOT RIGHT”. I told the security guard that they might need him inside on isle 8 with a man with a white shirt on. As he went passed me going into the store, I said to myself “a man with a white shirt and empty pockets”. “THAT’S NOT RIGHT”
Don’t know what happened after that I had to get my hair cut.

Skipping Rocks
Remember being young and spending a day at the lake skipping rocks?
What a way to live life!
We took my granddaughter to the lake last week and she just had to throw rocks in the lake. But it’s not just for young kids, it’s for Papa's and Grandma’s also. Lake Fulmor is just ten minutes from our house and it’s were I skipped rocks when I was young with my Grandpa and Grandma Fox. Alot of memories of fishing, camping, catching bull frogs, swimming, hiking and skipping rocks.
Skip a rock today and email me the number of times it skipped. Can you beat 6?
