May 1 - The May edition of the Tidings has been published. See the "Newsletter" page to view it.

 April 29 - Come join a new Faithbooking group!

      We’re starting a Faithbooking group at Bethesda! Faithbooking is an opportunity to create a testimony in words and pictures of your own personal faith journey. Amazing things happen when you take the time to record what God has done in your life. Think about the large and small miracles you have witnessed, the hard times and hard decisions you’ve faced, the people who have helped you along the way. You may not think your story is all that important. But personal stories, told simply and shared honestly from the heart, have the power to change lives. Come find out more- we’re planning to meet the first Thursday of every month and our kick-off, explanatory meeting will be Thursday, May 3^rd at 7pm at BUMC in the 3^rd/4^th Grade Sunday School Room. If you have any questions, please call or e-mail Janice Fullmer at janicefullmer@verizon.net. Looking forward to working on our own faith stories together!

On Sunday mornings we offer a Contemporary Service at 8:30 and a Traditional Service at 11:00.  We have Sunday School for all ages at 9:45.  Coffee and fellowship time is 9:30 to 10:00 in our Chapel. 

Our church sanctuary is 125 years old!  Yet we have an elevator, central air, special hearing devices and power point presentation in our sanctuary.  We have a multi-talented worship band playing at the Contemporary Service and a traditional pipe organ at the Traditional Service.

Please join us!  We take pride in our reputation for being a friendly, welcoming congregation.  Hope to see YOU!
