  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I ask because I have long lost family from there. I recall they were SDA, or Uncle Bill (who has since died) married a lady that was SDA, and I think they were from the Exeter area (around Visalia south of Fresno). I'd only ever met them once but they did take care of Grandma in her declining years and flew my mom out there for the funeral.

I recall when my mom returned to God she would consult Uncle Bill for spiritual advice. He'd have liked her to be SDA but since she wouldn't he told her to seek out the Church of Christ as next best thing.
