A group of members from St. John’s Episcopal Church in Fallbrook will be in the audience to welcome their Presiding Bishop, the Most Rev. Katharine Jefferts Schori, at a special visit April 5 at 4 p.m. at Good Samaritan in UTC. “We look forward to welcoming Bishop Katharine,” said churchgoer Gail Jones. “This is truly a wonderful, good news moment for our diocese.” The Presiding Bishop visits each of the 110 dioceses during her nine-year term; quite likely this will be the only time she will visit the Episcopal Diocese o...
If you’re anything like me, you have a hard time keeping track of when Easter falls from year to year. Some years it’s at the end of April – and then others it gets packed in with Saint Patrick’s Day!

I discovered this some years back when I celebrated Easter twice in the same year – once here in the United States, and then seven days later in Eastern Europe. Christians there follow the Orthodox calendar...
My son Chris and I always go to Sunrise service on Easter. It’s our tradition and we love it. No squeezing into overstuffed Easter pews, we relish the fresh outdoors and heart-filled, crispy cool worship. This year was perfect as Fr. Bud soaked us with holy water, scripture and profound thoughts as the sun crested over the trees and broke light on a gorgeous day! Home again, I slipped into a warm fuzzy blanket and some contemplative time with our Lord, as my son thawed out in the shower. I couldn’t help but ponder, “Re... Full story
The blue pickup swerves, then skids into the dirt, its front end buried in brush. As the driver of the truck jumps out, gun blazing, the white law enforcement SUV following it slams to a stop, an officer fires at the driver, wounding him, and within seconds, a blur of brown fur bolts across the ground. Moments later, the driver of the pickup lays face down on the ground and his fleeing companion struggles in the jaws of a canine police officer. Kevin McGuire and Carolina Dvorak watch wide-eyed along with other Fallbrook high...

The San Diego County Board of Supervisors has a public comment session for items under jurisdiction of the county but not on the meeting’s agenda. The supervisors cannot take action on such items at that time, but sometimes those matters can be handled by county staff without the need for the supervisors to take action. Such a resolution is likely in the case of three Rainbow community representatives who expressed concern about unpermitted commercial signs along Interstate 15 during the supervisors’ March 26 meeting. Because... Full story
