I have used laborers from you several times with no issues. That is why I keep coming back. I…read moreobtain workers from you guys for roofing assistance on 1000 sqft of my own roof on 1-18 and 1-19. I was very clear with what I wanted with Alba. I needed a few guys fit enough for the job, who knew what they were doing, and had their own tools. I provided all supplies. I know how to roof myself so I could provide direction and help. You sent Caesar, Mauricio, and Francisco. You told me that it would be $35 dollars an hour each and that they would use their own tools at no additional cost. When they got to my house Saturday at 9am, I explained what I wanted. I was told that it was too much work, but they would do it for $500 each per day. They said they could get the job done in the two days scheduled. I already had everything set up and supplies delivered. So I agreed because spending $3000 on labor didn't seem unreasonable to me and I figured they could use the money. Those two days became a 4 day nightmare! My roof still isn't done, Ceasar and Mauricio did nothing but fight with each other, and they demanded more money to complete the roof. I paid them another $500 each on Monday but refused to do so on Tuesday. They told me on Monday that they were coming back on Tuesday to finish the roof. I thought that meant they didn't want money because I already paid each man $1500 to do the job but was wrong. Tuesdays evening when they packed up to leave they demanded another $500 each. I refused and demanded that they leave. I now have an incomplete roof and was swindled by the three guys you sent. You need to correct this by sending someone to finish my roof at your expense and giving me back the $2500 dollars I was swindled out of. These three men should not be used as laborers again.

See website for the list of what they offer, what they can/cannot accept as donations. A friend had a bedside commode they used after hip surgery, so after a thorough clean I dropped it off. I was able to pick up a shower chair and a walker with a seat that they very much needed. Volunteers are very friendly and helpful. Parking in the moving company lot was easy. You have to keep an eye out for the signs to see where to pull in.

Parking is a tricky situation (follow the signage)- and it's an act of faith to drive on the narrow, steep roads. The main building isn't self-explanatory. On Wednesday mornings, they have a women's group called Julian's Cell, meditating to New Agey Celtic music. It's in a small chapel adorned with a cerulean mosaic. Julian's Cell is a small, friendly, welcoming group. It's a quiet, New Agey place with an androgynous crucifix, a statue of Our Lady beside a labyrinth, and an icon of Our Lady of Guadalupe. It's a place for rest and peace.

I'd heard good things about it. The pictures I found online of Angela Center definitely made the campus seem creepy (myriad of crucifixes, stations of the cross, etc.). When I first arrived, it looked and felt more welcoming than the pictures would suggest. It's bright (except for the chapel itself), very clean, and very well-organized. The rooms are small and efficient, equipped with air conditioning and heat. The beds are super comfortable. The grounds are beautiful, peaceful, and idyllic with birds singing, lizards sunning themselves, and a couple of cats who ask for pets and scratches. It's full of fruit trees and bright flowers blooming everywhere, lush foliage, and full, healthy trees. I am certain that this was a perfect spot for a Spirit Rock (or any) retreat space. I definitely recommend this center for a retreat or meeting.
