services.

The Grammar of Hate: An Interview with Bishop Rafic Nahra, Auxiliary Bishop of Jerusalem, on the Situation in the Holy Land
Simone Varisco
Even before October 7, 2023, «extremists felt protected by the authorities, or at least tolerated.» Radicalism, distorted interpretations of the Bible, polarization, and economic interests. «The greatest victory of evil is when it manages to contaminate the victim.»
The Surprising Revelations of a Catholic Exorcist on Tucker Carlson’s Large-Scale Podcast
Rafael Manuel Tovar
Demons can know what is happening in another room, know about the exorcist’s breakfast, or reveal the unconfessed sins of those present in the room: «If any of our attendees has an unconfessed sin, the demon knows it. And his attitude is, ‘If you don’t confess your sin, I still have power over you.’ That’s why, at the beginning of the sessions, the demons point to a certain person and reveal what they did that morning, without anyone present having known beforehand.»

Rightward Shift in Latin America Could Bolster Pro-Life at UN
Stefano Gennarini
A spate of right-wing victories in the region, including Bolivia, Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador, and Honduras, raises the possibility that Latin American delegations will align with the Trump administration, and not the European Union.

San Diego Japanese Christian Church 05.31.2026
We call this SoNoGo - South Park-North Park-Golden Hill & Our Mission: to see the baptized who live in SoNoGo worship in SoNoGo
San Diego Japanese Christian Church
OMS Holiness Church of North America
San Diego Japanese Christian Church (SDJCC) is here to share the good news that a dynamic relationship with Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord is the key to abundant living in today’s world. Our church was founded as an outreach to Japanese speaking farmers in San Diego County over 80 years ago. SDJCC now has English and Japanese speaking ministries. It’s easy to miss, tucked away at the elbow of 19th and E streets just above Interstate 5: the Japanese American Christian Church in Golden Hill. You’d most likely drive past this humble place of worship on the way up Broadway without noticing it, but if you happened to be on a stroll down E Street looking at the nice old houses, you’d stumble upon it after the bigger homes give way to a series of California bungalows. It’s there before E turns right into 19th. Across the street from the church, a chain-link fence lines the sidewalk above the 5 where the homeless set up camp on a regular basis before they are swept out and relocated only to return again when the police shift their attention elsewhere. Historically, the church itself is a product of a relocation of a different sort. As my City College colleague, historian Susan Hasegawa informed me, it was originally founded as the Japanese Holiness Church by Christian Nikkei (immigrants and their descendents) in 1930 and located on Newton Avenue. Sponsored by the Oriental Mission Society, the church focused its efforts on outreach to Issei (first generation immigrant) farmers.

Christ United Presbyterian Church of San Diego
What Is The Presbyterian Church (USA)
Christ United Presbyterian Church is a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (USA). Rev. Dr. Kerry Allison is the pastor of this parish church in South Park. We were established in 1981 when an invitation was extended to two churches—Brooklyn Heights Presbyterian, established in 1921 and the Golden Hill Presbyterian, established in 1956—to merge and each church accepted. The late Reverend Doctor George Walker Smith founded Golden Hill Presbyterian Church in 1956 with support from the Presbyterian Women organization. The church, located at 22nd and Market in South Park, became a human rights leader in San Diego as the congregation grew. Reverend Smith was the first black school board member in San Diego. May he rest in peace and rise in glory. Christ United continues its ministry in power and presence to the present day. All are welcome to join us in worship and togetherness.
