2026 Theme: "Abide in Christ, Growing in Love." Theme verse: "Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work." (Ephesians 4:15-16, NIV)

The Passover Seder and Meditation will be held on April 2 (Thurs) at 7:00 p.m. in the basement. Today is the last day to purchase tickets: $15 per adult and $7 per child (ages 4-12). Capacity is limited to 80 people on a first-come, first-served basis. Reflecting on the 2015 Passover lunch, Bethel would like to clarify the following three points to ensure the purpose of this gathering is understood:
No Obligation: Christians are not required to observe or celebrate Passover, as Christ, our sacrificed Lamb, has been offered once and for all.
Focus on Christ: The primary focus of this dinner is to meditate on Christ's final interactions and dialogues with His disciples before His suffering.
Educational Experience: The dinner serves as a form of "activity-based teaching," helping the congregation gain a deeper understanding of the timeline leading up to the Passion of Christ.
All attendees are asked to arrive before 6:45 p.m. Meeting will start promptly at 7:00 p.m.
