Burglarized RivCo Church Launches Fundraiser To Replace Sound System

HEMET, CA — The pastor of a small Hemet church and her parishioners are asking for help after their building was burglarized Sunday.

The church, Now Faith Deliverance International Center, located at 535 E. Florida Avenue in Hemet, suffered a burglary following services on Sunday, Jan. 21, according to pastor Virgestine Nickerson's GoFundMe fundraiser.

"The robbers took our PA system, speakers, two keyboards, cordless mics, mics with cords, supplies, light fixtures, and other things like the battery set," she wrote.

A police report has been filed. However, there are no leads in finding the stolen property or the people responsible, according to Nickerson. As of Friday, the community has donated $200 toward the purchase of new equipment.

"Thank you for all the seeds that have been sowed. Please continue to give," Nickerson shared in a Facebook post.
