Hope everyone is well and blessed.. As of today, I’ve heard no word from Alfonso & Peggy Galindo on the church. They have kept the church locked up and shut down. They have also made some legal transfers for the estate. I’m undecided on keeping this facebook open at this point.. I do have some ideas… would like your input and ideas to keep San Francisco Xavier in our hearts & Minds-& Faith. T

Today I found these signs posted on church by Alfonso Galindo. Sorry everyone for church not being open for you. Locks...

Hola a todos nuestros visitantes.. lamentablemente tengo malas noticias. He hecho todo lo posible para que la misión esté abierta para ustedes durante agosto de este año. Le he ofrecido a Peggy Galindo y a Alfonso Galindo dejar abierta la misión para ustedes, pero insisten en cerrar la misión no sólo en agosto, sino ahora en septiembre. Creo que están haciendo esto por razones egoístas y no les importa la fe y la adoración de todos nuestros visitantes. Para mí no entiendo por qué están actuando de esta manera ya que mi madre (Nicha) y el fundador de la misión (Francisco Vásquez), así como mis tíos (Simón y Poncho), pretendían que la iglesia estuviera abierta para muchos. familias para que vengan a orar y adorar. Desde 2011 he ofrecido mi tiempo y asistencia financiera a la iglesia porque creo que tiene un propósito en este mundo y Dios está allí. Me he resistido a los intentos de Alfonso de vender la propiedad y nunca aceptaré esto. Continuaré luchando por ustedes y exploraré caminos legales para mantener abierta la misión. Les pido su apoyo y oraciones durante este momento tan confuso. Los aprecio a todos.

Dios los bendiga,

Antonio Ribera

Hello all our visitors.. unfortunately I have bad news. I have done my best to have the mission open for you during August this year. I have offered to Peggy Galindo and Alfonso Galindo to leave the mission open, for you, but they insist on closing the mission not only August, but now September. I believe they are doing this for selfish reasons and do not care about all our visitors faith & worship. For me, I don’t understand why they are acting this way as my mother (Nicha) and the founder of the mission (Francisco Vasquez) , as well as my uncles (Simon & Poncho), intended the church be open for the many families to come pray and worship. Since 2011 I’ve offered my time and financial assistance to the church because I believe it has purpose in this world, and God is there. I have resisted Alfonso’s attempts to sale the property, and I will never agree to this. I will continue to fight for you and will explore legal paths to keep the mission open. I ask you for your support & prayers during this very confusing time.. I appreciate all of you.

God Bless,

Antonio Ribera
