The annual Youth Group Rummage sale that was held on April 24th had a great flow of buyers the entire day and the Youth Group was able to raise $1,025 for their program! Thanks to all who came out and helped prepare for the sale and all who worked on Saturday as well. A lot of work goes into making this event happen and all who put in long hours are much appreciated - David, Christian and Ava Nutter, Susan Burkey, and Michele & Madison Oxendine especially. Big thanks to all who donated merchandise, helped carry all the items up from the basement to the tables, assisted in pricing, and of course all who came out and made a purchase(s)! Food. fellowship. and progress!! Big thanks to all who stayed to help clean up the grounds at 122 E. Unaka! Nothing beats the feeling of accomplishment and fellowship with brothers and sisters in Christ! Thank you all for being a part of this exciting new step toward the future of Bethlehem! Great fellowship at our Easter Breakfast!   How wonderful it was to and celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ together!! Christ is risen. He is risen indeed!! Alleluia!!!  The Procession  The Children's Sermon  "Sin, death, and the devil couldn't stop him...the tomb is empty. Jesus rose just as He said!"  Welcome to the Lord's table!  Bethlehem recently participated in the Food Drive for the Good Samaritan food bank here in Johnson City. Bethlehem collected 955 food items in one week (the week of December 9th). This was a Thrivent challenge to collect 500 food items to send to a local food bank during the month of December. The 30 churches involved would qualify for a matching gift of $500 from Thrivent to the Food Bank. We also had a match from the congregation for $500 (or any fraction thereof) that would go directly to Bethlehem. |
