Session realizes the value that Christian camping has is deepening our relationship with Christ so they have once again agreed to cover 80% of the cost for Christian camping. If your child is going to Seneca Hills please turn in your registration and the 20% fee to Janice Grim by TODAY, as this allows us to get the early registration discount. Feel free to check out other Christian camps if you are interested.

Return by March 21 and place back in basket on table.
In the coming week we are taking pre-orders so we have an idea how many to print. Order forms are also on table. Any questions see Phyllis Kuhn, Christy Solley, Sue LaClair or Rhae Leslie
New Membership Class- Come and explore if God is calling you to become a member at Bethel. We will look at several areas of what it means to be a Christian and an active disciple of Jesus Christ as a member of Bethel. If you are not certain if you are ready to join Bethel this is the place to help you make that decision. We will meet for 6 weeks during the Sunday School hour in the Pastor’s office beginning April 18. Please call the church office to inform us of your intention to join us.
Caring for Bethel’s Flock of Children
Care for the flock that God has entrusted to you. Watch over it willingly, not grudgingly – not for what you will get out of it, but because you are eager to serve God.
