From CHLQ Board

Dear community,

Thank you to all those who were able to make it to CHLQ's Annual Meeting last weekend.  For those who were unable to attend, we would like to summarize the financial condition of the church for 2018.

CHLQ Financial Update

There was a sizable deficit, with income not fully meeting the expenses of running the church and procuring the Daime for us all. The shortage amounts to $382/month less than what was needed. The church has enough reserves to keep going for a few years even with a deficit, however, it is important that we become self-sustaining. We are asking our tithing members to consider increasing their monthly donations by $15 more per month, if they can do that. We are asking those who contribute at the door to consider contributing $15- $20 more per work, if they can. If those who are able increase their contributions by this amount, we will cover the shortfall and be in good shape financially. We are all very fortunate to have this wonderful gift of light from the Daime and we want to cherish and sustain it, so it can continue to be there for us and others. 
Thank you all for your support. 

With respect and love, 
your Board members.

A Call for Prayers and Support
Luis Fernando

Luis is in a battle with laryngeal cancer and is in need of financial assistance to help him with his medical care.
As the voice of our beloved Padrinho Alfredo, President of our Doutrina, it is clearly time to hear the call for the Juramidam family to pull its circle of light, prayer and financial strength closer together to help with this mission

Many have unique memories and stories of enjoying Luis's friendship and dedication to the doutrina, we encourage you to share these thoughts and prayers with your community in the weeks ahead as this fundraising campaign is underway.
We thank each one of you and the irmandade of your church for your prayers and consideration of financial support. Know even the smallest of contribution, will all add up to help reach our goal.

Muito Obrigada for your efforts and may the soothing sea waters of lemanjá bring strength and good health to her beloved son.
Friends of Luis Fernando.

Joy Patten
Dear friends, Many of you know me from my 20 years living in Ashland, and working as a chiropractor and healer. When I was in Hawaii in October, I ended up falling and breaking my arm. This has affected my ability to work.  I am so appreciative of all that I have and all that I am learning in this process, and am also finding that I need help. If you have been touched by me and know my heart, I am so grateful for any and all support. Love and Light, Joy(ce)

Parabens Zach, we are honored to have you with us.
