   Dear Bear Creek Family,
          This Sunday, I am looking forward to teaching part two of our current series, 'Create the Future or Repeat the Past.' I will share how God does not lie or change his mind. That he does not fail to act on his promises. You will discover the difference between Satan's Lie & God's Truth regarding your identity. This is a great message to invite and share with someone.

Following the second service is our next Baptism service. This is always a great time of celebration. Join us as we rejoice with those being baptized.

Before you join us on Sunday, we have two great activities to start off your weekend:
· Young at Heart Friday night at 6:00 pm. Janie Labarthe and her team from Dance Connection will be performing. Everyone invited!!! Dinner is potluck style. For more information and what you can bring contact Donna Davis at
davis820@sbcglobal.net
· Club 31 this Saturday morning at 9:15 a.m. in the lobby. Great Guest speaker & fellowship for all our ladies. For more information, contact Deanne Padilla at deannelpadilla@att.net

If you are new to Bear Creek, plan to join me Sunday afternoon at 3 pm in the Conference Room in the office building. This is a one session class that helps you see how you can get better connected here at Bear Creek Church. Just show up at 3 pm this Sunday. I will be looking for you!!

Next Tuesday, May 22nd - Celebrate Recovery will be hitting a special milestone - their 5th Anniversary! And they are having a celebration which the entire church family is invited to. Festivities include a concert by Pastor Jebby & his band 7 Flags and a traditional American BBQ dinner. Tickets will be available at Guest Services this Sunday - $7 for Adults & $4 for children (2-10 yrs). So purchase your ticket this Sunday and come for the celebration next Tuesday beginning at 6:15 in the Worship Center Lobby. For more information, contact Faye Rodriguez at fayekling@yahoo.com.

Be sure and make plans now to attend the premier Leadership Conference in the United States & World - Willow Creek Global Leadership Summit coming to Bear Creek Church on August 9 & 10. This is our second year hosting this satellite link to some of the most outstanding leaders of our times. One of the guests I am looking forward to seeing is Condoleezza Rice. Cost is only $75 for this 2-day Summit. You can conveniently register online by going to www.bearcreekchurch.com and clicking on the Leadership Summit icon.

We love you and are looking forward to seeing you this Sunday.
