Island Faith Center invites the public to a Mother’s Day celebration with Native American performer and minister Cheryl Bear at 9:30 a.m. May 13, at the Papaaloa Gym. To reach the gym, turn makai at the 24-mile marker on the Hamakua Coast.

The celebration will include special indigenous Christian ministry in music with drums and native regalia by Cheryl Bear and her team, ministry of the word by her husband, Randy, special gifts for all moms, and a potluck luncheon.

After the morning service, the celebration will continue with a concert at Laupahoehoe Point.

Cheryl is a member of the Bear clan of the Nadleh Whut’en tribe in British Columbia, Canada.

She and her husband travel extensively with a goal of visiting all the First Nations groups in the U.S. and Canada. Her CDs have garnered three honors in the Aboriginal People’s Choice Awards.

“It promises to be a wonderful day of celebration for the whole family,” said Pastor Mary Jo Stevenson Fullen. Island Faith Center is a pioneer work planted out of New Hope Christian Fellowship in Hilo, and part of the Foursquare denomination.
