John Chandler’s Memorial Service will be held at 11:00 am on Friday, July 28, 2017 in Marwick Place, Monte Vista Groves Home. Enter driveway C and go straight, brick building. Construction going on so parking will be limited. Carpooling advised.
Dr. Chandler was the second Executive Presbyter of Los Ranchos Presbytery (1982-1990). He saw the vision for church growth in Los Ranchos and championed M.O.O.D. (Mission on our Doorstep) to raise money for new church development and redevelopment.
