2021 MPC Relay for Life Team
MPC has had a steady presence at the American Cancer Society (ACS) Relay for Life for 15 years or more. It is a great way to raise money to help ACS programs and research, to honor cancer warriors and survivors, and to promote MPC in the community.
The 2021 Simi Valley/Moorpark Relay for Life will be October 16-17 (a 9am – 9am, 24-hour period) at the Simi Valley Town Center near Studio Movie Grill. Teams raise money for the ACS by getting monetary donations, getting merchandise donations for the ACS Silent Auction, by “selling” luminaries for the luminaria evening ceremony to pay tribute to someone who has been lost to cancer, is fighting cancer, and who has beaten cancer, along with other fundraising activities and efforts.
We also ask MPC members to be part of our team to help raise funds and to walk the course during the 24-hour event. Last year MPC’s team raised nearly $3,000 and our “booth” won the Best Decorated award.
Look for our purple table outside before and after church to learn more about how you can be part of the MPC Team!
Contact Maureen Hooper or Joslyn Tillar for more information.

Sunday July 11 – 10:30am
[address removed]
Moorpark Ca
You are invited to join us as we celebrate 100 years of life for our very own May Wong. After the 9:00am church service, we will head over and gather on the street in front of her house to sing a couple of worship songs (click HERE for lyrics) as well as singing happy birthday. We are encouraging everyone who comes to bring a birthday card and flower and drop it in the birthday basket when you are at the house. If you have any questions, please reach out to Kami in the office. (We do recommended consolidating into fewer cars).
Jan Jue shares about her mother:
My mom was delivered by her father in 1921 in Madera, California. She was number 4 of her 8 siblings. Her relatives were farmers. Her father and uncles grew almost every vegetable on a 500 acre farm that they contracted with Safeway to grow: beets parsnips, celery, parsley, carrots, watermelon, cantaloupe, honey dew, potatoes, lettuces, turnips, zucchini etc.
She went to China in 1937 to learn more about Chinese culture. While there, Japan invaded China and she had to hide numerous times from bombings and Japanese solders. She stayed 2 years because her mom’s US visa expired. Mom eventually left her mother in China with family and returned alone to the US.
She got married in 1941 to Herbert and became a farmer growing Chinese vegetables. Her mother eventually was able to return to the US. A neighbor introduced my mom and dad to Christ. Mom went to church whenever she could. This was not easy because Sunday is the day farmers ship their produce to market. She used to plow the field with a horse, and their first car was a model T. She had 2 children Jan (me) and Dick and 6 grandchildren. In 2007, mom came to Moorpark to stay with me. We immediately remove the grass in the backyard and mom and I have been gardening ever since.
If you would like to volunteer to hand out backpacks to the children during a 2-week event at Moorpark Pantry Plus, click HERE to see available time slots.
