| Located at the southern end of the great San Joaquin
Valley, Bakersfield is surrounded by a horseshoe-shaped rim of
mountains. We are two hours from hiking in the mountains, swimming in
the ocean or touring Los Angeles. Within one hour you can visit Magic
Mountain (Six Flags) or be water rafting in the Kern River. Bakersfield
is rich in opportunities to be involved in people's lives: working with
churches which have S.A.Y. Yes! Centers for Youth Development, Kid
Clubs, Light Houses of Prayer, Hope Center (clothing, food & training
center), homeless center and a variety of neighborhood ministries in the
inner city. |
