BIBLE STUDY ON “REVELATION”
We have begun our six week Bible study on the book of Revelation. In our study we'll look at the book of Revelation from a different perspective, studying not just what the book means for us today, but also what it meant to the people of 2000 years ago. Come join us on Sunday evenings at 7:00 pm. The study will last about 1-1/2 hours.
DATES COMING UP!

COME AND SEE
“Come and See” John 1:39-41 has been chosen as the theme for Bethany's Women of the ELCA for 2019. “Come and See” is the invitation that Jesus gave to His first disciples, the Apostle John being one of them. “Come and See” is the invitation that Jesus gives to people today. “Come and See” is the invitation we send to all confirmed women of Bethany. Join us at 6:30 pm on the third Wednesday of the month for fellowship, worship and service. We NEED you, regardless of age, abilities and even attitudes. We have lots of work to do sharing God's love and joy. Please join us.
