Feria de Salud Serves Napa

The Napa Spanish, a community-relevant and mission-driven church served their community on August 14 by hosting their second annual health fair.

This event was a very important collaboration with the St. Helena Hospital Foundation, Napa County Health Department, Open Doors, and Feeding it Forward.

The health fair focused on healthy living, cooking, and self-sufficiency for the local community. Additionally, enthusiastic youth delivered food to those who requested it.

According to Jose Diaz, pastor of Napa Spanish, “We had about 200 people attend our second health fair, and we thank all of our volunteers and all of the entities for their support of this important service.”

Sacramento Slavic Hosts Campmeeting

The Sacramento Slavic church engages with its community by hosting a summer camping experience for members and friends. Since 2012, the church has hosted youth camps every summer to connect friends and family from around the United States.

According to Roman Tsyganiuk, pastor of the Sacramento Slavic church, “This year, our camp had just over 140 people, and for the Sabbath service, another 50 people joined us.”

Tsyganiuk continued, “Thirteen people decided to make a covenant with God through baptism. It was an incredibly joyful event, and we are very grateful to God for these young hearts!”

David Gainer Passes to His Rest

We are sad to announce that David Gainer passed away on August 29, 2022.

David was the long-time physical plant manager of the NCC offices and formerly for Adventist Health.

John Beaman, CFO of Adventist Health remembers, “Dave was one of the most dependable men I have ever worked with. Soft-spoken, he let his actions show his commitment to our mission of living God’s love.”

According to Wanda Bourgeois, a friend, and co-worker, “David was one of the humblest, and hardworking people I’ve ever met. He was a ‘what can I do for you to help’ kind of person.”

John Rasmussen, NCC treasurer reflected, “He was a very committed and knowledgeable person here and really knew how to keep the building working.”

Debi Beach of Adventist Health said, “He loved to serve. I look forward to seeing him again when our precious Jesus comes to take us home.

A memorial will be held on October 8 at 4 PM at the Roseville church. Please contact the church directly.
