November 2008 - It's the middle of November and there's a widespread feeling of being caught somewhere between the old and the new. That's as true at L.A. County + USC Medical Center as it is anywhere else in the country in these days. The move to new buildings has been largely accomplished now, but it looks like there will still be some running back and forth for many staff, including the Department of Pastoral Care. That iconic 75 year-old structure still casts a powerful shadow over much of the community. Click here to read more >

March 2008 - Twenty years ago it wasn't news that congregations responded to calls for help for needy patients from chaplains at L.A. County + USC Medical Center. That had been happening without fanfare from the earliest days of the hospital. What was new in 1988 was that Chaplain Santos Ramos and Ann Mills teamed up to uncover a wellspring of compassion and generosity in congregations and communities all across Los Angeles County and beyond that continues to flow to this day.

February 2008 - Angel Interfaith Network is so much more than the four souls who labor in the basement of a South Pasadena church on behalf of patients and families from the L.A. County + USC Medical Center network. Click here to read more >

November 2007 - Following our successful "Everyday Miracles" benefit luncheon last month, Angel Interfaith Network is embarking upon a strategic planning process and firming up more short-range plans for the holiday season. At an October baby shower in Claremont, an interfaith group of women helped AIN recognize and celebrate five years of service by Raquel Salinas. We enter the Thanksgiving season with many reasons for gratitude. Click here to read more >

You can read about one of them in the article below. Another one will be our sixth annual benefit luncheon, "Everyday Miracles," being held at Oneonta Congregational Church in South Pasadena on Saturday, October 20th. Milestones show us that each day we grow in our capacity to serve the neediest patients of L.A. County + USC Medical Center and their families through charitable assistance and pastoral care.
