Río and Sierra...

Join us to hear an encouraging message of diversity within the family of God. Trinity Church is committed to being a community of healing. We join God in the work of reconciliation. We also seek to be a diverse community of hope that realizes the power of the cross to reconcile what has been separated by sin.

This requires that we move beyond our personal preferences and engage those whom we perceive to be unlike us. We must actively work to break down barriers of color, culture, social class, language, and ethnicity...

What does it mean to make space for those who came before us?

Casa Aguacolla invites you into a morning of remembrance, Andean cultural learning, ritual, and community.

At the center of the gathering is the Chakana — the Andean cross and a living altar practice carried within Tayta Iván Navarro’s work...

By design, it is a church created for those who have been hurt by religion in the past, including people who may be divorced, members of the LGBTQ+ community and their straight allies, the blind, the deaf, the disabled, HIV+, immigrants, the poor, the homeless, individuals with alcohol and drug addictions, those who have overcome those addictions, and non-believers. All may come together to learn, love, seek, and be touched by an all-loving community...

How we learned to deal with the IESS in Ecuador.

• Well

• This story takes place in Loja

• Happened more than once

My friends/clients, after receiving their Ecuadorian visas—whether temporary or permanent—and their ID cards, decided to enroll in Ecuador’s IESS.

They paid their premiums on time for a few months and then began to experience knee and hip problems…

They explored the option of seeking private treatment, received cost estimates for knee and hip surgery or replacement, and, in the process, got some good advice from the doctors who treated them...

At Trinity Church:

We welcome those who are single, married, divorced, widowed, confused, rich, comfortable, or poor.

We welcome those that cannot sing and those that sing like Pavarotti. We welcome those that are just “browsing”, those that believe they are spiritual, and those that live on the streets.

We welcome those that think they are more religious than the Apostle Paul, and those that have not been to church since Christmas, 10 years ago.

We welcome those over 60 that act like teenagers and teenagers that are growing up too fast...

With over 17 years of professional experience as an LMT, yoga teacher, and fitness trainer, I specialize in individualized therapeutic bodywork, myofascial release, and movement designed to address the underlying contributors to pain and restricted motion.

Every body is different, so every treatment should be too.

I assess how your body moves and which tissues may be contributing to your discomfort. Muscles, fascia, connective tissue, nerves, and the lymphatic system each require different approaches, so your session is tailored to what your body needs, not a one-size-fits-all protocol...
