[I was there, briefly] VALLEY BEATS MARANATHA 54-14 @PASADENA

So I spent 2 days at the fuller seminary missiology lectures, and left a little early Friday evening to catch the 2nd half of valleys game, only a few miles from fuller [my Alma mater ]. I arrived at halftime and it was 48-0. Wow. Actually boringly easy game for valley. They need bigger challenges.

Re MEASURE D [subdividing city] "City of Bellflower - Election / Voting INFORMATION"

Basically if I'm reading this correctly by subdividing the city basically turn it into five mini bell flowers with each subdivision being sort of a Barrio of some sort and I don't think that's true to the spirit of the entire city. BELLFLOWER is 1 city, not 5,...keep it united as one.

Do they really need police at valley Christian games? Makes it feel so public [secular]. & why?

I've NEVER seen any bad behavior at a valley game. Why does valley administration want this?

Valley v heritage 102816

nice punt return for TD 10/28 Heritage Christian 7, Valley Christian Football 28

Valley seemed to be struggling early on against a tough Heritage defense, but a few big plays 2nd half, including a nice punt return helped them break away for the win.

"Pool priest" At St Bernard Bellflower [ive seen him at other parishes incl St Timothy, and...

and sometimes he seems to be "trying" to act authoritatively...or trying to establish "command" but doesn't seem to really have "it" . I don't feel comfortable with him. He's like a substitute teacher. He never stays long enough to become established & comfortable and gain real credibility. Why can't he be a regular priest at a parish? Let us pray for this priest and whatever his situation may be...give him what he needs to become a "real priest" and trust in God with all his heart, mind, soul, and strength.

4/8/16 REMEMBERING PHIL TEMPLEMAN (bellflower, bethany crc, valley Christian, et al)

...when our family moved to california from michigan in 1984  i was a senior in high school ...actually it was the summer between my junior and senior  year. I started practicing with the valley Christian football team planning on staying for my senior year. We also started attending Bethany CRC where my grandfather was a retired pastor (he came to bellflower in 1936 and co-founded Valley Christian Schools and pastored 1st CRC in bellflower...later returned and retired in bellflower). The templeman family was very nice to me and their son Kirk was my same age and also played football. At the time, their dad owned a radiator repair service on firestone ave in downey ( advanced radiator if i recall correctly) . 

They invited me to work for them, along with Kirk and Phil (& I think Jim Tanis worked there too for a while)  to make a few bucks and something to do to get to know the local community. I became friends with Kirk that summer and went to a few events with him and a few other valley Christian kids. 

It was a great time, great experience, but I was lonely for my friends back in Grand Rapids and decided to finish my high school career back in Michigan ...where I lived with a friend and then a relative for a year. I didn't really return to california for long-term until much later in life...but my dad stays in touch with the local valley and bethany crc community and is in touch with the templemans. I didn't see this email until a month after this funeral. Condolences to the Templemans. Thoughts & prayers to you. & thanks for the kindness during the summer of '84.

attached message from fr michael ume, st bernard bellflower (march '16) , and prayer for pastor Ume

 attached message from fr michael ume, st bernard bellflower (march '16)...so I have a lot of heritage in the Bellflower area..as my grandfather came to the area in 1936 and started valley Christian schools and led as pastor at one of the local Christian Reformed churches back when bellflower was mostly dairy farmland, and lots of Dutch-Americans were settling in the area...and my grandfather was bi-lingual Dutch & English and helped the new Dutch settlers... [later, most of the dairy farmers moved to the Ontario area]... and my Christian Reformed Dutch brothers and sisters still live in the area and there's still a strong, thriving CRC community here...but I also am strongly active in the catholic church and attend st Bernard somewhwat regularly now. .. and I noticed Fr. Ume is from Africa...he speaks English but has an African dialect...not sure which country he is from exactly, but he is a hearty, friendly pastor and doesn't seem supercillious towards the congregation.. let us pray for him so far from home...maybe sometimes he misses his family and where he came from..we pray for his family back in africa...and his friends et al.. God bless Fr. Ume. We pray for the HOly Spirit to continue to convict and lead him, and we pray for the congregation to continue to grow in Christ and be a welcoming church...many of the members or attendees or local latinos...we pray for the latino community in bellflower as well.. be inspired, be unique, do something GREAT !
