The successes that God gives us can be a strong encouragement to others.  In life we are called
upon to share our victories with others, as we will be carrying the message of his saving power &
love to those who are listening.  This may be all it takes to give them the courage to go on.  They
will see God's transforming power in our life & begin to hope that god can do the same for them.  

    El Buen Pastor Church has worked on the Eastside of San Jose, since 1974.  We have seen
many lives changed through the programs, outreaches, bible studies and general fellowship
within the church & one another.  October 2006 a new program was birthed, "Str8Nup Ministry"
under the direction of Tommy Molina Jr. & Eliseo Ybarra.  We know that God did not create us to
live in bondage, depression, frustrations, angers, etc.   His love for us is proven through the
peace, joy, freedom, we feel in knowing Him, Jesus Christ on a personal basis.  

  
What we offer:
  • Spiritual Guidance through the bible
  • One to one connection with an advisor, male or female
  • Follow-Up fellowship & group sessions upon release from programs, or institutions
  • Shared testimonials from genuine changed lives, both male & female
  • Involvement for self & family in Community outreaches upon releases
  • Awareness of programs for work, housing, food, clothing medical programs that are
    available to help meet your needs in our community.

    Rehabilitation alone, at times may not be enough.  Therefore we come to offer assistance to
anyone going through struggles & hardships through the "Str8Nup Ministry" of our church.  We
invite you to share in our joy, peace of mind, our confidence, as we fight the good fight for our
peace of mind.  We believe in God's power to change our way of thinking, our attitudes, our
character, our general way of living through the word of God.  Learning to cope with the
changes our society brings to us daily.  Change is a life long process, but out living is one day
at a time.  

  
  Begin new life of light, after all...it's your free gift from the one who created you.
