September 2017
Experience God. Walk with others. Serve the world.
A Word From: Pastor Roger Ahhhh, fall is almost here! We have had hot and smoky days but those crisp fall mornings are right around the corner. In the church, that “chill” means the beginning of a new year where ministries start and people’s lives are touched and changed by the power of the Holy Spirit. With the challenges that face us all, and the hope of new ministries beginning, we need to look to the One who brings all good things to pass, Jesus Christ! We are going to have an opportunity to do that together on Friday, September 22 at 7pm. This will be a Night of Miracles! We are going to come together with the Bethel Worship Team and liR high praises to our King. There will be opportuniTes for all kinds of prayer and for seeking the Lord as one united family. So, invite your friends and family, spread the word and we will see you all on Friday for the Night of Miracles right here at Bethel Church. See you there, Pastor Roger Hutley
