Church Grounds Beautification: A volunteer
is needed to be a “caretaker” of our outdoor plans during the Summer months
by watering them twice a week. If you can help
with this, please see Trent Cable or Iris
Carpenter. Your help would be very much appreciated. Also summer flowers
need to be planted around the Church Sign in front of the church. If you
can help with this, please also see Trent.
The people of Bethel are willing to Serve as Jesus
commanded us to do. There are many in our congregation that occasionally
need a helping hand with minor repairs around their homes or work outside
that they are no longer physically able to handle on their own. There is a
sheet in the Narthex where you can list such needs. We hope to be able to
branch out in our community in the future to also our serve our neighbors
needs. If you know of such a need, please also list this on the sheet.
