When my family was facing one of the most difficult moments of our lives--my mother's…read morehospitalization which was soon followed by her heartbreaking passing--we were blessed to find comfort, care, and true compassion at Jacob's House. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed not just as guests, but as people in need of a safe, supportive space to breathe and regroup. The team at Jacob's House extended kindness that felt so genuine--it was as though they wrapped our family in a warm hug during a very heavy time. The home itself is peaceful and thoughtfully maintained, with every detail clearly designed to bring a sense of calm to families like ours. But beyond the physical comforts, what meant the most was the human kindness. The staff checked in on us, offered encouraging words, and created a space where we didn't feel so alone in our grief and uncertainty. It's rare to find a place that truly lives out its mission, but Jacob's House does just that. Their presence made a heartbreaking chapter in our lives just a little bit lighter, and we will always carry gratitude for the compassion they showed us. If you or a loved one are ever in need of a place to stay during a medical emergency in Temecula, know that Jacob's House is a sanctuary--one filled with heart, understanding, and hope. With deep gratitude, Nora

I have been looking in the San Diego…read moreand LA area for Chinese schools, but the program from Temecula Chinese school is designed way better than those other schools, whether talking about the content of class or the teachers. It's close-to-home location is definitely a plus. The staffs are very patient, they're always there to help. The teachers are also very professional and children-friendly. We speak Mandarin to my nine-year-old at home, but her speaking and reading skills weren't even close to her listening skills. Every time she comes home from the class, she's eager to use the vocabulary she's learned in the class that day. I'm very pleased with the results as a father, and I will definitely recommend Temecula Chinese School to anyone reading this. The only concern that I have, is that apparently there are two Temecula Chinese Schools on google. I got confused for a little bit at first, but I'm glad the other one never answered my phone calls, so I could have my great experience with this Temecula Chinese School on Ynez ct.

They have everything from furniture, appliances, clothing etc. to drugstore items and food. Some of the foods are expired or close to it but if you don't mind that there are plenty of great deals.

A few things in the box are shelf stable. It's a wonderful deal for people on a food budget. Many times they have free items with purchase such as Krispy Kreme doughnuts, fruits, veggies and various other items. Last summer we got flats of free fresh tomatoes and canned tomato sauce. It's always a new experience here because there are always new items.

Never heard back from them and we were ready to adopt immediately.

(I do understand and respect prioritizing the mental health of the cats, but I'm sure the cats, especially the adults, would prefer a compromise, like being required to fill out a one page form on the spot before meeting). Every serious adopter that goes into a pet store and sees one of this organization's animals that they are interested in adopting and is told they have to go through this and this and this step before they can even interact with the cat and know if the personality is a fit. Everyone loses out. In my experience, even if you do go through all the steps, they won't call you back, and a cat that could have had a home I know had that opportunity taken from them because of the seemingly righteous or superior attitude of the rescue people. They surely know how many people go in and out of those cat and kitten rooms at the Animal Friends of the Valley shelter. Having a few people go in one at a time to meet one particular cat, I don't feel, is any more dangerous or unhealthy for the cat than them losing the opportunity to be adopted and eventually being put down. I just don't understand rescues like this. If you're too small to actually help, then let somebody else do it.

Mindy provided a very personable, warm and extremely responsive service, made every effort to respond to my inquiry on Adopt-A-Pet and approving my application as well as just answering my questions and chatting with me about my potential cat baby's personality traits and his background story. She responded to emails as late as 11PM on a weekend and her demeanor was always welcoming and reassuring, like an old, caring friend. Mindy's words and actions convey that she truly truly love all of her rescued cat babies and she only wants what's best for them and she works extremely hard to find them good homes. I was very sad that neither cat babies from her rescue matched the particular personality I was looking for (I was trying to fill this big hole in my heart with the tragic loss of a stray cat named Cookie I cared for) and I really wished that given all the hard work she and her daughter put into, I'd adopt either Teddy or Khabib. Despite these big, affectionate sweet boys were not the best match I was searching for, I don't think any less of them, I sincerely hope they will find their forever home they deserve and I cannot be more grateful for Mindy's time, patience and understanding she's extended me and my family. If I had more capacity for an additional cat baby in the future after finding THE ONE, Mindy and her rescue is the first place I'd check out.
