Please join us this Sunday after church services to celebrate Javier’s 10th year with us. He is the quiet person behind almost everything that takes place here at ACC. His unique experience in his previous career means he can fix the roof, gutters, and decks, replace plumbing and light sockets, trim trees, and set up the rooms for our gatherings, for the Scouts and outside renters, and much, much more. And always with a calm and loving spirit.
His father played on the Uruguay national soccer team in the 50s; the team ultimately won the World Cup. Being the son of a famous man brought perks, although living under a corrupt dictatorship was difficult, and sometimes dangerous. In his 20s, he emigrated to San Francisco.
He is an avid motorcyclist, often taking trips to parks and sanctuaries. He particularly enjoys books on history: world, American, South American, and currently Russian. His favorite thing to do is spend time with his family, especially his two granddaughters, Natalie and Molly. Every school day he could be seen walking Natalie to and from elementary school, and now Molly; always in the company of his two rescue dogs, Shorty and Lilly.
So come, have a piece of Molly’s favorite cake, and let him how grateful we are to have him with us.
