What is the greatest mystery of
life? What baffles you about life?
This week in the book of Daniel, we
learn that God is the revealer of
mysteries. This is why things
beyond us can be known. This is
why there is an answer to what is
troubling you. The questions is:
What mystery has God made
known?

FOCUS
After seventeen years of of serving the Lord at Canyon Lake Community
Church, Linda Lemcke has decided to retire next month. We as a church
fellowship would like to come together to show our appreciation to Linda for her
faithful and dedicated leadership in Children's Ministries. There will be an
Open House from 2:00 p.m. ­ 5:00 p.m. with a special gift presentation taking
place at 3:00 p.m. in the gymnasium. Be sure to save the date! KEYS FOR
BELIZE
MACHACA Ministries
in Belize
needs our help!
As many of you know, our church made an incredible connection with
Machaca Ministries in Belize when we sent our APEX group there last summer
to help with one of their camps. And although we are not sending the group
there this summer, we still plan on continuing this amazing relationship with
them and returning again. We are so thankful that God has connected us to
this ministry. We can have a KEY role in helping them prepare for their summer camp
programs. They need KEYS! Lots and lots of KEYS! They have asked for
help in receiving 1,000 keys that are no longer used for anything. So, please
go through your junk drawers at home and bring in your unused keys to the
church. You can deliver them the box labeled "Keys for Belize" in the
Missions Window on the Patio on Sunday mornings, the church office or
straight to Pastor Jay's hands any time you see him. The request was for only
metal keys. Thank you so much for continuing to support this ministry through
such a simple act. God bless. NEEDS FOR JULY:

MY FIRST MISSION TRIP WITH REAL LIFE MINISTRIES
The week of June 21st, I went down to help build a house for a needy family in Ensenada, Mexico with Paul & Teresa
Milano and six others from our church. The week prior, I was full of nervous anticipation of what would happen. Would
we be safe? Would we sleep well? Would I be able to be of much help? Would we be able to do such a big job with only
nine of us? Would the family even appreciate the work Real Life Ministries did for them?
My fears regarding safety and comfort were relieved immediately when I saw the securely gated compound and the
rooms with bunk beds, (I slept well). Dennis and Debbie and their eight staff/interns, all are such wonderful, welcoming,
godly people. This is such a fantastically rewarding ministry. It was great to meet Jessica and hear her appreciation for
everyone coming. Our team of nine seemed so small, but Dennis and Debbie of Real Life Ministries had four people who
are skilled in construction and four other hard­working helpers. We set to work, one group laying the concrete slab, the
other framing windows and walls and assembling roof trusses. Tired, but happy at day's end. Then three more days of
amazing friendly unity, getting up the roof, the windows, the walls, the electrical, the lathing and two coats of stucco! I
would truly not have believed this feat if I hadn't been there. I was so tired each evening, but so filled with a sense of
accomplishment. One afternoon, I got to go with the girls to shop at the segundas (secondhand stores) and we found a
beautiful table with eight chairs for Jessica and her six children. The presentation of keys to Jessica at job's end and her
family's awe over everything, along with inspiring messages from Dennis, Paul and Teresa resulted in a tearful,
heartwarming speech of appreciation from Jessica. I am so jazzed about this amazing Real Life Ministries! God is truly
doing a wonderful work here.

another. Being a member of a Women's Circle provides an excellent opportunity for small group
fellowship. For more information contact Circle Coordinator Phyllis Duncan (951­245­9380).

The Purpose of Celebrate Recovery is to develop
relationships with others and to experience God's healing
power in our lives through the 12 Steps and 8 Principles of
recovery. We are changed through this experience. We
begin by sharing our experiences, strengths and hope with
others. Further, we become willing to accept God's grace
in solving our life's problems.
As we work to understand and apply the Biblical principles
that direct the Celebrate Recovery program, we begin to
grow spiritually. We recognize our own dysfunctional,
compulsive and addictive behaviors, and become free from
them. This freedom creates a peace from within, serenity,
joy, and foster stronger personal relationships with God and
others.
Quite simply, anyone whose life has become
unmanageable will benefit from this ministry. Some of the
hurts, hang­ups, habits and life circumstances that are
represented in our meetings include: ♦ Adult Children of
Alcoholics ♦ Alcoholism ♦ Anger and Rage ♦
Codependency ♦ Compulsive Control of Others ♦
Divorce Care ♦ Drug Addictions ♦ Food Addictions ♦
Grief Care ♦ Pornography ♦ Sexual Integrity and Lust ♦
Uncontrolled Spending ♦ Tobacco Use
Even if you did not see yourself in the list above, if you
are finding it difficult to maintain a meaningful relationship
with God, others or yourself, consider attending Celebrate
Recovery. Come and join a family of believers who, like you, desire a
positive life change, to become free from the burdens of
sin and pain, and intentionally live the life God has
intended for us.
