Non-profit spreads ‘seeds of hope’ this holiday season

eno’s Rico Tacos at 549 West Valley Boulevard in Colton hosted the 9th Annual Seeds of Hope Toy Giveaway on Saturday, Dec. 16. Having joined the effort to help families for the holiday season about five years ago, Leno Moreno reminisced about how much the event has grown. “The first time Gloria (Gaona) came to me about holding the toy giveaway here, it was because the place where she had planned to hold it had double-booked and they couldn’t accommodate her that year. When she explained what she was doing, giving toys to families in the Colton area that needed help at Christmas, I had to say yes,” Moreno shared, “and it’s grown a lot. The community pitches in, they come to us to help out. It’s because they know we’re doing the right thing.” Asked what he personally receives from the day-long event, Moreno smiles and says, “I get a blessing and a prayer, and with that, honestly, I’m good to go.” Gloria Gaona, Director and Founder of the faith based organization Seeds of Hope works with
groups and individuals across the Inland Empire all year long to gather toys for families who had previously applied for inclusion to the giveaway. Gaona is quick to offer many thanks to the continued support of those who volunteer and make this event so special for everyone involved. “I always give a special thank you to the board of Seeds of Hope, the real heart of this organization,” said Gaona, “to my family and Leno’s Tacos. This truly takes a village, but most importantly, I thank God who gives me the strength. I just could not do this without all of them.” Since applications are taken all year long prior to the toy giveaway, Gaona says the number usually caps out anywhere between 400 and 600 children who are able to be served in this annual event. This year, even with overcast skies threatening rain, there was a crowd of volunteers in place when the first families showed up. Families checked in to verify they had an approved application, and children were taken to fun stations (this year included Home Seeds, cont. on pg. 2

heather tutton, seen here during a town hall at Reche Canyon Elementary School earlier this year, has been vocal in her opposition of development projects that may affect the community’s rural lifestyle. She raised her concerns to the Colton City Council at their meeting on Dec. 19.
his week the Colton City Council confirmed its support for a sphere of influence amendment request that, if accepted, may have implications on the type of resources and services Reche Canyon residents receive in years to come. ASU Enterprise Partners University Realty LLC is asking the San Bernardino County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) to have their 209-acre vacant property served by the City of Colton. The land, which is to the east of Reche Canyon Drive and the historic Hitchin Post, currently stands within Loma Linda’s jurisdiction. It does not receive police, fire, or utility services from either of the cities. CEO M. Randy Levin previously told city leaders his organization is committed to helping resolve the roadways, improving LAFCO, cont. on pg. 2

Depot’s workshop to build a sleigh, a face painter, and a visit with Santa, Mrs. Claus and an elf). While children were kept busy, parents went “shopping.” A Santa’s helper was assigned to each family to help carry gifts and a large stocking full of goodies over to the wrapping station, where special elves from groups such as the Colton VFW, Fire Wives of the Colton Firefighters and the Colton Chamber of Commerce helped wrap every gift. Pictures with Santa were taken and printed for each family, and
live music entertained the crowd. Anthem CareMore Health provided free water and granola bars, while Renteria’s Construction in Colton distributed a gift to each child to add to their Christmas stash. Grand Terrace and Colton High School students helped families load gifts into their cars. Seeds of Hope is always looking for community members that would like to help prepare for and volunteer during this wonderful outreach program to the children in the Colton areas, and you can contact Gloria Gaona at 909-8560741.

water pressure, and creating diverse housing in the Reche Canyon area. University Realty LLC develops donated real estate property into properties managed by the Arizona State University to support educational programs in the community. The footprint of such development helps to establish scholarships for students in the local community, while also improving the community’s quality of life, Levin explained.
“We’re not looking to get this solved in a day, week, or month,” Levin told the Council. “This is something that’s going to take all of us.”
It means University Realty LLC pledges to follow the multi-step process required to meet environmental impact reports, approvals of specific plans, and garner community input, explained University Realty LLC Christine Aghassi. The organization held two meetings with residents to discuss concerns with traffic congestion and safety.
“We are committed to this body and the community members,” Aghassi said. “We’re putting the resources behind this to do it the right way.”
City officials made it clear that they would be open to servicing the area if University Realty LLC’s application is approved by LAFCO. Councilman Jack Woods believes the project, once completed, will be a “fruitful” piece of work for the area.
Mayor Richard DeLaRosa emphasized the city’s need to establish “political clout” by partnering with nearby agencies to develop com-

munities across the city, including Reche Canyon.
“The only way we’re going to do that here on out is to partner with people that are experienced on bringing these types of improvements,” DeLaRosa said.
Many residents who live near Reche Canyon Drive continue to oppose any development that continues to decimate the “rural” lifestyle of the community. However, they appreciate University LLC’s verbal commitment to addressing their concerns.

“We’re too many cities in too many counties and we do not have a voice that counts,” said Reche Canyon local Heather Tutton. “This is the opportunity for the City of Colton to stand with the residents, instead of against us.”

Slow down and take a br eath this holiday season
Maryjoy Duncan
Stop being a perfectionist Don’t try to control situations that you cannot control because it will only leave you frustrated. Stop eating to excess It’s so easy to want to indulge in hot eats and treats over the holidays, but try not to overdo it. “This is big — more than people realize,” he says. “What people do is they want to give themselves freedom to indulge, but what that does is it creates more stress in your body which then doesn’t help you handle the psychological stress on a day-to-day basis.” Stop trying to make everyone happy It is impossible to make everyone happy, and this is especially true around the holidays. No, you won’t be able to make every dinner party, but that’s OK. He says people may initially seem disappointed, but when you set your boundaries, people respect you for it. Stop expecting big gifts There’s no need to dazzle your friends and family with big, flashy gifts. On top of that, don’t expect big gifts either. Instead, expect nothing, and if something is gifted to you, be grateful. Make sure to follow up with a genuine “thank you” whether in person or in a note to show your appreciation. Stop buying on credit You may feel the itch to buy a lot of gifts for everyone, but make sure that if you do you, stick within your budget. Stop determining worth on things “Don’t try to determine the value of the gifts you received but instead value the time you have with your family and friends,” Trivedi says. “Enjoy the actual company rather than the expectation of the result.” Stop prioritizing others over yourself Make time for yourself. Even though the holidays are when many spend time together with loved ones, you have to make sure you practice self-care. Maybe enjoy some alone time. Take that extra time off, treat yourself to some time to do nothing. And don’t be afraid to cancel some plans if you feel overwhelmed because it may be the best thing for you in the long run. Stop planning everything Lastly, know when to call it quits on planning. Trying to control every minute leads to underlying stress you might not even realize, enjoy the present time. Being present for the holidays is the most enjoyable thing you can do - you never know what unexpected excitement and surprises might be around the corner.

As I sit here writing this column all the errands that I still have to complete are buzzing around in my head and I slowly start to feel overwhelmed, panic will surely ensue shortly. There are gifts that still need to be purchased, holiday cards to be mailed - which I still haven’t received Shutterfly! Christmas dinner menu to plan and the consequent trip to Ralphs. The holiday season seems to cause a flurry of stress as we get wrapped up in the holiday hoopla, setting high expectations in order to make things perfect for our family and friends. There are moments that I remind myself that the holiday season isn’t about the gifts and the running around, but about being with family, and I’m able to pause and take in a few deep breaths, but once the mind starts racing again, that very fleeting moment of calm quickly dissipates. I researched some tips and found some by Dr. Alok Trivedi, a psychological performance coach at The Aligned Performance Institute. I hope you find them helpful, as for myself, I will breathe easier come Dec. 24. Stop trying to please your family Learn to say “no” to your family sometimes, otherwise the holiday season will be a very stressful time for you. And while quality time is nice, allocate your time accordingly, and don’t over-commit. Stop painting the holiday fantasy Know that the stereotypical holiday fantasy is just that — a fantasy. So if you’re unrealistic in your expectations, you will only be let down. “Ask yourself, what’s the benefit of the holidays for you? What’s the worst that could happen if it doesn’t work out for you?” Let the reality of our holidays unfold realistically, he adds. Trying to make a fantasy into reality will only lead to disappointment.

tor union negotiates with a state government, it is, of necessity, engaged in political activity. Collective bargaining and contract enforcement are at root political. Why? Virtually all the demands of the union directly impact the state government’s fiscal status and condition. Inevitably those union demands, if agreed to by the state government, require it to either raise taxes on its citizens or require it to reallocate spending priorities in order to meet the new demands. These decisions are clearly political. Put another way, Janus is saying that the Abood Court failed to see that public sector unions advance their political goals as much through collective bargaining as through more direct political lobbying and the supporting of political candidates. Janus offers his own state as a stunning example of a state where contracts made with unions now threaten the financial stability of the state. Illinois owes creditors billions of dollars and carries billions more in unfunded pension obligations. Janus believes that union bargaining positions have made the state’s budget and pension crisis worse. Even more distressing to him is that he is financially supporting those destructive positions and policies with his fair share payments. Since Janus is funding those political goals against his will, his freedom of speech is infringed because he is compelled as a matter of law to support the positions taken by the union with which he disagrees. This problem of compelled speech is as old as the classic 1943 case of West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette. There the court proclaimed that the First Amendment speech protections prevent citizens from being compelled by governmental decree, in this case, the State of Illinois, to support a position against their convictions. That is precisely what AFSCME has been given the power to do by the state’s labor laws. Agency shop and fair share regimes of public sector unions should be ended as unconstitutional, and that portion of Abood that wrongly held that collective bargaining and contract enforcement were non-political should be overruled.

hristmas is my favorite holiday. Its place in Christianity is second to Easter because of the resurrection of Jesus. I endorse this view. However, the celebration, the traditional festivities all contribute to the happiness and joy in celebrating the Christmas season. In my 90 years I cannot remember a time when Christmas was not celebrated-even during the Great Depression. The tree, the gifts, the music and the message always thrill and inspire me. Strange as it may seem the humor in the Season has always impressed. I’ve collected many of the humorous tidbits. Most of them have a religious content. For example, this story happens in a Christmas children’s program. Johnny has a “part” and is ready. His mother is sitting in the front row. As a four-year-old he is simply to recite, “Jesus is the light of the world.” At the appointed time, with lights low and spotlight on him, he stammers, stutters and forgot the
words. His mother, sensing the dilemma whispers, “I am the light t of the world.” He doesn’t get it, so she whispers it louder. Finally, he gets it, and repeats loudly, “MY MOMMA IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD.” This short story is my favorite. The setting is the Nativity Scene outside a traditional Church. It depicts the three Wisemen, four Shepherds, Mary and Joseph, and the baby Jesus. The morning of Christmas Day has a very disturbing scene. The baby Jesus is gone. It is a mystery. Then the crowd is amazed when a five-year-old little boy, pulling a red-wagon in tow comes by. Baby Jesus is in the wagon. He is asked why he took the Baby Jesus. He said, “I PROMISED JESUS THAT IF I GOT A RED WAGON FOR CHRISTMAS, I’D TAKE HIM FOR A RIDE IN IT.” The next two stories are true. One involves me and in the second I’m a worshipper. The first happened in Tunis, Tunisia. I was Chaplain and Counselor. The year was 1969 and I was on the Hope Ship for the second time. Upon my arrival in Tunis, a delegation came aboard and wanted to see me. They were members of the Anglican Church, which was the only Christian Church in the country. Their priest had become ill and had returned to London. I was asked to conduct a service each Sunday while on the ship for four months. I consented. After two months, it was Christmas Eve. I conducted a 5:00 PM service at the Anglican Church; then a Protestant service on the ship at
7:00 PM; at 11:00 PM I assisted the Catholic chaplain at the midnight Mass. The service with the Anglicans is very memorable. As I concluded my sermon, I repeated the words to the “Hallelujah Chorus” from Handel’s “Messiah.” To my surprise the entire audience stood in tribute-as was and is the custom when it is sung or played. The next morning, December 25, 1969, I became Santa Clause, beard, and red suit complete. The staff and crew had brought about 100 children patients into one ward for a Christmas party. I startled the group by Ho-Ho-Ho-ing loudly. The kids didn’t know what to do. They were all Muslims; so, I explained-with an interpreter-the story of Christmas and Santa. The staff and crew had a gift for each child and as I called each name, someone took it to the child. Unfortunately, one child in a body cast had been brought to the hospital ship the night before. She could not move and suddenly I thought that I did NOT have a gift for her. I could see the tears in her eyes as I came to the bottom of Santa’s bag. To my amazement, the staff had placed a special gift for her and I gladly placed it on her cast. That was not the end of my happiness. I was 10,000 miles from home. We were about 10 hours ahead of my church in Fullerton. But with the help of short-wave radio I surprised Pam, Deb and Doris. From the ship’s radio to London, then to New York, then to L.A., and then to Fullerton; a phone message went to the church that had a Christmas Day service.
My associate called them to the phone at the pulpit. I’ll never forget the conversation; I cried, they cried and I was told the congregation cried. It was a great Christmas. Now, my second Christmas memory. It occurred on Christmas Eve of 1982 at the Highland Congregational Church. I was the minister. My celebration began at 5:00PM at the Macamul’s home. Joe, Pauline, their 6 sons, and their families. For years they invited friends and neighbors for a feast on Christmas Eve. They served 3 kinds of soup. Chili, clam chowder and oyster stew, plus cold cuts and other foods. I attended for many years. Then I went to the church. The property was decorated beautifully. Obie Oberhelman had constructed a Nativity scene in front of the church: Wisemen, Shepherds, Mary, Joseph, and the Babe; with lights focused on the scene. The walkway from the parking lot to the sanctuary was lighted. Lights on the bay trees, and votive candles in paper bags with sand. Ken Gunn, Paul Chandler, Carson Storer, John Yount and Jim Sims did the work of setting them out. A brass trio greeted the worshippers; Robert Chandler on trumpet, Michael Chandler on trombone and me on the baritone horn. By the way, every Christmas Eve we had three services. Services at 7:00 PM, 9:00 PM and 11:00 PM. The first for the children’s Sunday School program; the 9:00 PM for the musical Cantatas, and 11:00 for a devotional with the Sacrament of Holy Communion.
But, on December 24, 1982 the second service was unusual. I’ll never forget it. The Sanctuary was beautifully decorated with candles, poinsettias and two Christmas trees in the Chancel. By 6:30 PM the Sanctuary was packed and chairs up and down the aisles. People were even sitting on the stairs going up to the bride’s room. Chairs and a sound system were set up in the Fellowship Hall. It was also filled. Scores of people were standing and seated on the lawn outside the Sanctuary. The Music Committee of the Church: Professor Michael Ross, Dr. Virgil Neilson, Susan Thomas and Carolyn Mathers had planned a presentation of Handel’s great Oratorio, The Messiah. The church choir of 25 singers plus 10 imported singers from Loma Linda and an orchestral ensemble from Loma Linda University were tremendous. The climax of the service was “The Halleluiah Chorus” being sung and accompanied by the organ and ensemble. Spontaneously the audience stood immediately in tribute to the Messiah. King of kings and Lord of lords, Halleluiah. I have heard this Oratorio many times, but never was I as thrilled by it as I was on December 24, 1982. By the way, I was so thrilled I forgot to take the offering. What a service and what a memory for me. STELLA AND I WISH EVERYONE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS. Amen. Selah. So be it.

California Conservation Corps helping with Thomas Fire, other natural disasters
By Anthony Victoria
s California firefighters continue to deal with the Thomas Fire, the California Conservation Corps is lending their full support by sending members to aid them. About five California Conservation Corps crews from the Inland Empire are helping multiple fire agencies fight off the wild flames in Ventura by assisting with camp support. That means helping construct fire lines, helping prepare meals, and setting up a tool station for firefighters, explained Inland Empire Director Rhody Soria. “We’ve been fairly busy,” continued Soria. “It’s a continuous thing we respond to.” The CCC has become accustomed to helping aid public safety personnel during natural disasters. Last month several corps members based out of the San Bernardino office helped clean up debris and rebuild neighborhoods in Houston that were devastated by Hurricane Harvey. “They just got back two weeks ago, after spending close to a month helping clean up communities in need,” Soria said. “We’ve even sent crews to St. Thomas and Puerto Rico. The California Conservation Corps gives at-risk youth and
young adults the opportunity to receive employment training and educational support. Since the program’s founding in 1976, about 120,000 young adults have participated in the program. Many leave the corps to get jobs as firefighters, entry-level park aides and highway maintenance employees. Others continue to pursue higher education or become park rangers and entrepreneurs. According to the CCC website, corp members earn minimum wage and receive medical benefits. Many of the youth who join the CCC become “transformed” by the experience of helping conserve and maintain the outdoors. Conservationist Angel Lizaola is iecn photo courtesy CCC among the hundreds of youth the Above: crews fill and place sandbags to protect residents from floods during heavy rainstorms. program has helped change into a better person. “The program provided me with good work ethics and life skills,” said Lizaola, who serves in a supervisor role with the Inland Empire station. “I think we’re providing youth with a good platform to start their career. We have a little bit of everything for everybody.” For those who are looking to join the California Conservation Corps, visit their website at www.ccc.ca.gov or call (909)2534714.
