God is great! Once again, we had another successful Gods Work Our Hands day at Bethel. We had over 25 people participate and thanks to Lynda Grymala’s Thrivent card, we had plenty of Live Generously t-shirts and supplies to complete all of our projects. We assembled 72 bags of trail mix for WATTS, wrote 25 letters of encouragement to Afghanistan refugees and 30 cards to Haiti, tied quilts, tagged prayer shawls, and delivered 1254 children’s diapers, 356 adult diapers, and 2448 wipes to the Red Wagon Ministry. Thanks to everyone who helped out writing, assembling, tying, tagging, and delivering! You all are truly an example of God’s Hands in action.

Our annual Harvest Sunday, where we sell vegetables and goodies grown by our very own Bethel community, will take place on Sunday, August 8. All proceeds will go to help Lutheran World Hunger!
This is the 20th Anniversary of Harvest Sunday! How amazing! We are so appreciative of Julie Shanabrook and her faithful leadership all of these years!
By Heart is our NEW Adult Confirmation program. It is designed for those who never went through confirmation as a Lutheran (or did so and want a refresher), for those who are new to the Christian faith, and for those who simply want to learn more about Lutheranism and our unique witness. The program will begin in May, 2021 with an information meeting at Bethel on Tuesday, April 20 @ 7pm outside in our picnic shelter.
The program will be using the book “By Heart: Conversations with Martin Luther’s Small Catechism” as our textbook. You can purchase one HERE.
Pastor Dave will be leading this study. If you are interested in participating please contact Pastor Dave (pastordave@bethelwinchester.com).
