WANT TO HELP PROVIDE FOR
VBS? It’s a big privilege and
effort to get our VBS off the ground! A list of some of our needs will be
posted here and updated regularly so that we can pull of a great VBS for our
neighborhood kids! Check back and let us know if you can supply any of these
things! Thank you!
KIDS HELPING KIDS: If you’d like to respond to
what you’ve experienced here at Bethel, we give you that opportunity through
Bethel’s “Kids Helping Kids” mission. This year, we will have the chance to
once again provide school supplies for some kids in need right here in our
neighborhood. We’ll also have the privilege to provide malaria nets for
people in Africa through the Lutheran Malaria Initiative! Look for more
information on both of these projects in the weeks to come.
