The next board meeting is scheduled for Sunday January 9 at 2 p.m. at Bethlehem UMC. (In case of snow/bad road conditions on the 9th, a bad weather date will be on Sun. January 16th at 2 p.m.).
The following new committees are asked to have a “progress report” ready at the January meeting so further plans and contacts can be made: Youth Celebration Night committee, music committee, and elections committee. Thanks!
Non-denominational revivals have been held on these grounds since 1897 under an open-sided wooden tabernacle. You will realize you are on "holy ground" as we worship, listen to special music, sing, and pray together. Attending the annual, week-long services each night is a meaningful historical and spiritual experience! ALL are welcome to come and learn about God's word!
