Ventura Estates Calls for $15,000 on , April 11 WHAT WILL BE OUR RESPONSE?

Ventura Estates, home for our elderly citizens, has at last become a reality. This home, located near New- bury Park Academy in the lovely Camarillo Valley, is ideally situated for restful, relaxed and healthful liv- ing. It was Matthew Arnold who said, "One's age should be tranquil as childhood should be playful. Hard work at either extremity of life seems out of place. At midday, the sun may burn and men may labor under it, but the morning and evening should be alike, calm and cheerful." The Southern California Conference has made every effort to establish a home for the elderly people in a calm, cheerful and yet dynamic environment. There will be sufficient activity for those who desire it; relaxa- tion for those who thrive on it; fellowship for those who feed on it; and peace and quiet for those who need it. We would like to call your attention again to some of the following facts about Ventura Estates: I. The entire plant will eventually consist of ten units, each having ten rooms and a lounge. Each room has an excellent view of the mountains, a large closet, the best of furniture, and is equipped for TV and radio. 2. Members of the Southern California Conference will have priority for rooms until July 1, 1959. After this date if there is available space others will be accepted. Aerial View 3. September 1, 1959, the doors of Ventura Estates will swing open wide to welcome our senior citizens. 4. August 23 will be open house. Everyone in the conference is invited to conic and see the institution. Ceremonies are planned for the day; announcement in regard to this will appeal in the RECORDER later on. 5. Appetizing meals prepared by experienced cooks will be served in a lovely dining room. 6. A large lounge for rest, relaxation and fellow- ship has been provided in the administration building. This will be one of the treasured spots of Ventura Estates. 7. An infirmary will be constructed in 1960 to be used in case of extended illness. 8. Sabbath, April 11, you will have an opportunity to help with this project. We are asking for 575,000 and hoping to receive more. With your help we will go over the top. Letters were sent to all families in the Southern California Conference. Check blanks and envelopes were enclosed. Bring these to church on Sabbath, April 11. Remember the admonition of the Word of God, "Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and the widows in their affliction, and to keep himself un- spotted from the world."
