We are living at a time when there are countless distortions of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We are living at a time when throughout evangelical Christianity, in churches like ours, people are adding to the Gospel. It is also a time when some are being accused of taking away from the Gospel. We are living at a time when we need to think clearly and accurately about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Join us Sunday at 9:30am as we start a new sermon series – “Grace is Greater: A Study in Galatians.”

Women, come join us for brunch and a morning of creating bouquets together on Saturday, May 14 at 10am. Floral demonstration by Ashley Pollestad. Everyone will leave with their own floral arrangement to keep or give away! Sign up in the lobby. If anyone has extra quart jars they’d be willing to drop off before the event, please leave them in the church office.
HOSPITALITY TEAMS
Are you looking for a way to serve at Bethel? We need to add some additional people to our existing Hospitality Teams. When you’re part of a Hospitality Team, you serve just once a month on a Sunday morning. There are plenty of ways to serve on these teams – at the Welcome Center, Door Greeters, Ushers, and Coffee Makers. These are enjoyable, important, and needed roles in our church family. Stop by the Welcome Center to fill out a response card.
CONNECT BIBLE FELLOWSHIP
Adults 50 and over, join us on the first and third Wednesday at 2pm for a meaningful time of study and fellowship in the Connection Room.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT PROGRAMS
Parents and children are invited to participate in Awana (K-6th grade) and The Underground Youth Group (7th-12th grade) Wednesdays at 6:30pm. These are great opportunities for families to grow in their relationship with the Lord and the knowledge of God’s Word, while enjoying fellowship with others.
