Placerita Bible Church is in search of movie extras on Saturday, May 27, and wants to invite anyone interested to come and be a part! The film is a comedy, SELFIE DAD, a faith-film distributed by Sony that will point moviegoers to the inerrancy, authority, and sufficiency of the Bible! They need extras on Saturday from 2 to 5 p.m. to create a worship service scene. Anyone 18 to 27 years old is also needed for about four hours, starting at 7 p.m. To sign up, please email PBC at nick@kappastudios.com.
GO MINISTRY
Our Go Partner Spotlight of the month is James Townley; who is a missionary with Pioneers in Albania. His ministry reaches out to the Roma people; a minority group who are outcast from the society and who are unreached by the gospel. He does this by building relationships, meeting their physical and spiritual needs, and using soccer outreach. Through his outreach, he hopes to make disciples and plant an indigenous church. Please pray for James as he continues to learn the language and build relationships, as well as for his safety.

You can grab a bottle today at the Registration Cart or church offices. Please bring your filled bottle back to the cart by Father's Day, Sunday, June 18.
WORSHIP MINISTRY
We are looking for gifted string players who want to serve Jesus with their talent. Contact our Worship Director at gclark@lifeatcrossroads.org.
NEXGEN MINISTRY
NexGen is looking for families who want to get involved with NexGen this summer. We have many spots that have been held by college students during the school year who are going home for the summer, so if you'd like to step in now is the time! Contact Nichole for more information at ngreer@lifeatcrossroads.org.
WILDERNESS JOURNEY
As we prepare to enter our new home, we will be leaving our main campus at the end of July and enter a short period that we are calling our “Wilderness Journey.” Here are some important dates to remember:
→ July 30: Last Sunday for Worship Services @ Main & West Campus
→ August 6: Worship Services @ Location Found!
→ October 8: Grand Opening at 25300 Rye Canyon
Crossroads offices will remain at our North Campus, and ministry will continue as normal during our time in the wilderness.
During our transition time, we are estimating that we are going to need an additional $150,000 “over and above” our normal giving in our Building Fund. This will assist us in covering additional costs associated with this delay, including:
→ Temporary Worship Location
→ Rent for our North Campus Offices
→ New Building Carrying Costs
We are asking that each person who attends Crossroads to prayerfully consider giving over and above your regular tithe to carry us through this wilderness period and into the new building. If you would take part in raising an additional $150,000, we ask that you make your offering to our Building Fund. Should you have any questions, please feel free to talk to Steve Stark, our Church Administrator, or one of our Elders.
TEN
TEN is a mission we launched on our ten-year anniversary, when the Crossroads family, by God's grace, commits to giving our lives away in three ways. First, is by planting ten healthy Bible-teaching churches. Second, is to build out and pay off the Valencia Crossroads' main campus within the next ten years. Last, is to identify, select, and financially underwrite the cost to send ten teenage orphans to the Master's University. Join us. Together, we can invest in the future today by making your check out to TEN or donating online at lifeatcrossroads.org/give. All contributions to TEN are tax-deductible under IRS guidelines.
