Stockton Covenant Church

Thank you for your prayers! 🙏🏽 Our StoCo crew returned safely from late Friday night! Come to church Sunday July 21 to hear them share about their experiences!

Join us as we welcome back guest speaker, Rev. Rici Skei.

StoCo HS Youth are at Unite West in San Diego this week. Yesterday, they joined in amazing worship and received a good word! Please pray for our youth leaders Keith and Ro and the nine students: Alex, Atticus, Eli, James, Justine, Luke, Micah, Sofie, and Zac. (Pastors Fil and Juana are also serving at Unite West.)

Pastor Juana’s Facebook was hacked. Please do not accept a friend request that appears to be from her. The hacker may also request money-this is a scam.

We hope to have this resolved quickly.

Congratulations to Evelyn Johnson, our former Superintendent of the Pacific Southwest Conference (PSWC)! She was honored at our denomination’s annual meeting, which is happening now in Covington, KY. We're also excited to have Pastor Juana and Clarence K. Chan representing us at the conference.
