VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL – REGISTRATION OPENS MAY 3
With Illumination Station, VBS will be the brightest week of the year! While many people claim to know about Jesus, many are in the dark about who He really is. During VBS kids will explore all the ways light brightens, illuminates, reflects, and reveals, and how Jesus, the Light of the World, does the same!
Join us as BEFC and BBC team up to present VBS. Mark your calendars for Monday-Thursday, July 13-16 from 9am-Noon at the Becker Baptist Church. (Registration opens Sunday, May 3rd at beckerbaptist.org)
FABLE ROASTERS COFFEE OR COCOA FUNdraiser – ENSENADA EXPEDITION

Ensenada Expedition FUNdraiser – Needs2Nails
If you have a “need” that you’d like addressed in the next couple of months, the Ensenada Expedition Student Mission Team would be happy to help.
