Pastor Victor Garcia and his wife Milagro hold their vaccination cards after receiving the J&J vaccine at their Iglesia Fuente De Salvacion Church on Saturday, April 10, 2021 in San Pablo, Calif.Paul Kuroda / Special to The Chronicle
Roxana Ramos went to church Saturday, but more for physical health than the spiritual solace typically associated with houses of worship. Along with about 400 other people, the 36-year-old Richmond domestic worker was able to get her coronavirus vaccination at Iglesia Fuente de Salvacion in San Pablo.
