Remember that June 11th is the last Sunday that Pastor LuAnn will be preaching at Bethany UMC. Her message will be “Here I Am Lord” and she will also serve Holy Communion. After worship, please stick around for a Good Old Fashioned Potluck in celebration of Pastor LuAnn & Pat. Bring a dish to pass, no sign ups necessary. Meat & drinks are provided. Love offerings for Pastor LuAnn are being collected as well. We all wish Pastor LuAnn and Pat the very best at their next appointment at Port Huron First United Methodist Church.

We will be receiving Pastor Kathy who will preach from the pulpit on July 9th, though she will be present in worship with us on July 2nd. Please remain in prayer for all of the pastoral transitions taking place, not only here at Bethany, but within our district and conference. We pray for smooth transitions and for God’s hand to place the right people in the right places at the right time.

On the Way to Bethlehem: During Advent & Christmas of 2024 we journeyed to Bethlehem as Children & a donkey helped to show us the way throughout Pastor Sarah’s sermon series.

It’s a Wonder-Full Life: Spiritual practice feeds that part of ourselves that is oriented toward
serenity, harmony, truth, compassion, gratitude, love and joy. But these are not always words we use to describe the role of money in our lives. In the classic film, “It’s a Wonderful Life,” a crisis of money
creates vastly diverse reactions from several characters that can hold up a mirror to our own relationships with money.

Do Unto Others: In October 2024, Pastor Sarah led us through a sermon series during a divisive election season where we learned about Doing Unto Others through kindness, compassion, humility, respect and love.

Uncommon Wisdom: In September 2024 Pastor Sarah will share some uncommon biblical wisdom during this 5 part preaching series.

Reshaped: What We’re Made For – In this 4 part series from August 2024 – Pastor Sarah led us through a worship series about getting animated and embracing change. AND we played with a lot of play-do! Experience this series again!

Lay Speakers Includes many sermons from our laity over the years including Jerry Mowl, our All Music Sunday, and most recently Randy Hildebrandt of God’s Country Community Ministry. We also include here a guest clergy speaker, Kim Bos from November of 2023.
