The Orchard Community Church targets to conduct services at its new home this Feb. It organized an All Church Work Day to make this possible. This activity took place on Jan. 22. 

Work at New Home

The Orchard Community Church invited its congregation to get its new home ready for Feb. On its website, the church encourages its members to come together and roll up their sleeves to get things done in their new home.

According to the church’s announcement, minor and major projects are organized for volunteers to work on. Shifts are available for this All Church Work Day activity. 

The shifts were from 9 a.m. – 12 p.m., 12 p.m. – 2 p.m. Volunteers were also encouraged to stay from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. The church provided lunch on the patio from 11:30 a.m. until noon. 

The Orchard Community Church welcomed everybody, including children, in this All Church Work Day. The church included children provided they could work safely with their parents. Childcare was not available on this day. 

The following workday is on Jan. 29 from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m. This will be a Youth Work Day, and parent permission is required. The Orchard Community Church will provide lunch for volunteers.

The church’s new home is at 2081 Bear Valley Parkway, Escondido. 

Orchard inherited this almost five acres sanctuary from Cornerstone Church in

Escondido. It was in Nov. 2021 that Cornerstone Church gifted Orchard this permanent home in North County, San Diego.

Assad Saif is the pastor of Orchard Community Church. The church aims to invite people to find hope and experience love through faith in Jesus Christ, the Savior. 

Prayer Walks

Through Jon and Sherry Shumaker, the church organizes Prayer Walks around its new home. According to its website, as the Orchard Community Church prepares to worship and gather in its new facility, it encourages members to join Prayer Walks. 

Participants will be walking around the buildings, praying for the land, the people, and the ministry that the Lord has given to them in their new home. 

The organizers recommend but do not require registration for Prayer Walks. The next Prayer Walks is on Jan. 29.
