The Southeastern California Conference (SECC) is excited to announce our Lodge Lift campaign. It’s time to give our Pine Springs Ranch lodge a face lift and we need your help. We are renovating the entire lodge, from the lobby and hallways to the meeting rooms and furniture. We are also upgrading all of our guest rooms, from the carpet to the ceilings, and providing each room with new windows, solar shades and air-conditioning. It is safe to say your visits to Pine Springs Ranch will never look the same again.
This renovation project is estimated to cost $5 million. In order to make it a reality, we are calling upon our conference family to help donate towards this project. SECC is willing to double your donation by matching every dollar raised up to $2.5 million. We can and will complete this project with the generosity of donors like you, who cherish their past experiences at PSR and want to help make more possible in the future.
With your help, Pine Springs Ranch will continue to serve families and churches for generations to come, offering them the chance to answer Christ’s invitation, “Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest,” Mark 6:31. We thank you for continuing the legacy of our camp and retreat center by joining us in that mission.
And we thank you for not just making a donation, but for making a difference.

We solicit your prayers for the Hemet Church and others who have been affected by the Fairview fire. The Fairview fire has been raging in Riverside County. The church and some of its families are under evacuation orders. Please keep Pastor James Uyeda and the church family in prayer. Members have been helping others as they evacuate and have been on alert at the church. Please continue to pray for the Hemet community, that this fire would be contained and that there are no more fatalities.
"When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze." Isaiah 43:2b
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Dr. Alfonso Valenzuela. He passed away last Thursday evening, September 1, 2022. After a long battle with illness, he is now at rest in Jesus. He had a stellar career of pastoring, writing and teaching. He served the Seventh-day Adventist Church for many years throughout the world and at the Seminary at Andrews University. He also pastored several churches in this conference. Most recently, he was the sole pastor at the Yucaipa Spanish Church. He leaves to cherish his memory his wife, Jeanine and his two adult children, Veruschka and Alan. Services will be held on November 19, 2022 at 6 p.m. at the Yucaipa Spanish Church. Please keep his family, his loved ones and his church in prayer.
