Aid for El Maguey
El Maguey is a neighborhood in the city of Atotonilco, Mexico where our little sister church Cristo Vive is located. The people of El Maguey have been especially hard hit during this pandemic due to lack of work, lack of medical care access, and a tornado in June that caused a lot of damage.
Looking after the people who live in El Maguey is a long-term need. Please make any monetary donations you can. Send your check, made out to FUMCatSJ, to the church at 24 N 5th St, San Jose, CA 95112. Please label it “El Maguey” in the memo line.
