New church proclaims ‘a better way’
No one probably knows how many religious groups are located in South Valley. One reason for this is new congregations seem to be constantly forming: population growth and a large percentage of religiously unaffiliated residents make this a good area for providing new opportunities to learn about and connect with God.
Sierra Vista OSP hike is stunning
A couple columns ago, I wrote about the Aquila Loop Trail, a short loop near the Sierra Vista Open Space Preserve parking area. In that column, I promised to return to walk the longer loop that reaches deeper into the preserve.
Volunteer Opportunities, Foster Homes Needed
PETCO-GILROY AND PETSMART-MILPITAS ADOPTION CENTERS - Our two permanent adoption centers are temporary homes for our little waifs as they await their forever homes. We need to staff each with reliable and dedicated volunteers so we know the kitties are well taken care of every day, so we hope you will decide to volunteer there caring for our kitties. If you can donate a few hours a week, we'd love to have your help. Please contact Linda Cunningham at [email protected] if you'd like to help at Petco-Gilroy, or Paula Myers at [email protected] you'd like to help at PetsMart-Milpitas. It's the best and happiest volunteer job you'll ever have, and is one way to love kitties without the full responsibility of actual pet ownership, help kitties without adding to your own household kitty headcount, or fill your kitty void from having an allergic family member! Â
