Year after year, Altadena’s predominantly low-income
students achieve academic proficiencies 40-50% percentile points below
their non-low-income
peers statewide. Based on repeatable practices at key public schools
with higher penetrations of low-income students than Altadena, closing
this gap is well within reach to any community that can break free of
the structures that block the hard work of closing the gap! Come join
this justice pursuit that some at the national level have called “the
key civil rights challenge of our generation.”
- 4th of July Weekend, Annually
The Casa de la Esperanza orphanage trip is an inter-generational work-weekend
that takes place over the 4th of July weekend each year.

Dear La Cañada friends,
Throughout history, God has used two to strategies
to "bless the nations"
- Sending His people to the world
- Bringing the world to His people.
Most of the teaching on world missions has concentrated
on the going (or sending), but God has always brought the world to where
His people are located.
The opportunity to reach international students is
recognized by missions experts as one of the most strategic ministries
in the world today. It involves no travel, no learning of a foreign language,
no cost, and no change in lifestyle. Simply welcoming and befriending
a student into your home can make a large difference in the life of that
individual. Research has shown that 70% of international students will
never set foot in a home in America, and many are lonely and feel isolated.
We have a unique opportunity to welcome international
students studying at Caltech by involving individuals or families as " Friendship
Partners". The ministry of International Students, Inc. (ISI) takes
care of finding the students and matching them. Friendship Partners welcome
the students by arranging to see the student in person once or twice
per month for the semester at a time and place that is convenient for
everyone.
Please prayerfully consider serving as a Friendship
Partner and welcoming an international student by sharing Christ's love.
If you are interested Andy Pearce, Area Director for ISI, and I will
be leading an orientation/equipping session from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm on
Thursday May 17. There is a $10 charge for the materials. You can decide
if you would like to be involved at the end of the session. Please contact
me for more information.
"The alien living with you must be treated
as one of your native-born. Love him as yourself, for you were aliens
in Egypt. I am the Lord your God." (Leviticus 19:34)
