Thanks to all who attended Bethany's 2012 FISH FRY DINNERS

Bethany once again served its annual Fish Fry Dinners during Lent. The dinners were held in the church social hall, and were enjoyed by those who attended. Thanks to all who supported the dinners by attending, and special thanks to all who donated, prepared, served, and cleaned up.

Although these Fish Fry dinners originated as a fund-raising event, the purpose is no longer to raise money for the church. Instead, any profits from the dinners are donated back to the local community (sometimes to families in need, sometimes to food banks, etc.).

Thinking about visiting Bethany? Please accept our open invitation to visit any Sunday. View a brief slide show by following this link.

Thanks to all who attended and helped with the 2011 THANKSGIVING DINNER at Bethany

Once again, Bethany held its annual Thanksgiving Dinner. For the past 29 years, the congregation of Bethany, along with support from other local churches has been blessed to be able to provide a Free Thanksgiving Dinner as a community service on Thanksgiving Day.

Some who attend are homeless, some are struggling financially, and some have no close family with whom to spend the holiday. For folks who are shut-in or otherwise homebound, delivery service is provided. Everyone is welcomed and each is treated to good fellowship and a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with turkey, stuffing, mashed and sweet potatoes, vegetable, rolls, pumpkin and fruit pies, and coffee and tea.

Thanks to all who donated roasted turkeys, turkey breasts, stuffing and pies, and to the folks who volunteered to help set-up, cook, serve, deliver meals, and clean-up.

THANKS TO ALL WHO VISITED US AT THE DORMONT STREET FAIR!

Bethany's booth was located in the first block of Potomac Avenue (between West Liberty Avenue and Glenmore). As in the past three years, we gave away hundreds of items (absolutely FREE!). Our giveaway items included things such as books, date planners, games, t-shirts, and much more. There was no obligation, and nothing to buy.

Please Worship with us this Sunday!

Our regular worship time is 9:15 a.m. every Sunday. If you would like to sing with the choir, rehearsals are now at 8:30 a.m. on Sunday, immediately before worship. Adult Sunday School class is held immediately following worship, at 10:30 a.m.

Our worship time is 9:15 a.m. every Sunday, followed by Sunday School at 10:30 a.m. We look forward to seeing you.
