As of Friday, April 10, Beatriz will have made about 400 face masks. Of those, about 220 have been distributed to the congregation and to the Souper Center and Emergency Food Pantry volunteers. Those masks were paid for by donations of material and money from the congregation.

About 160 will go to inmates of the prison hospital in Vacaville, California. Those masks are being paid for by a generous donation from the ACC Board of Missions (in other words, a further donation from the congregation).

This has been a win-win situation for us all.

Beatriz is willing to make more masks, but for the moment it looks as if we should stop, unless more funds become available.

I am deeply grateful to everyone who has donated so generously already, but please do contact me if you would like to support more of this work.

At the moment, I still have about 20 masks on hand. Let me know if you would like some.
