Lesson 10

Bethel provides volunteer workers for the Bibles For Missions Thrift Store in Worthington the first Tuesday and the third Saturday of each month.  Anyone is welcome to join us as we help sort and sell things at the Bibles for Missions Thrift Store in Worthington MN.  We meet at Bethel at 8:15am to carpool together.  If it doesn't work for you to ride along with the group, you are more than welcome to meet us at the store and help for as long as you are able.

The fall session of Coffee Break and Children’s Story Hour (ages 3-Kindergarten) begins with brunch on Oct 9 at 9:30 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall of First CRC in Edgerton. Coffee Break is a weekly Bible study for women. All women are invited.  We will start off this fall by studying the book of Ruth. In four artfully shaped scenes, Ruth, Naomi and Boaz live out the story of a God who provides for his people according to his promises.  In the plans are also a couple Christmas lessons and the study of Esther (January 2020).  Nursery will be provided.  Got Questions?

Church and Coronavirus: We want to love our neighbor by not incubating an outbreak of disease in our community. We also want to love our neighbor by providing easy access to the only gospel that saves.So, as an attempt to find a wise balance of these responsibilities our current plan is as follows. We are doing a “digital service.” All other meetings and activities of the church are temporarily suspended. That means that you are asked to stay home and receive the service and the preaching of the Word either online or on the radio. The Church is not silent. The gospel will be preached twice on Sunday.

Scripture tells us to "pray without ceasing" (1 Thes. 5:17), to "cast all our anxieties on God because He cares for us" (1 Pet. 5:7), to "look to the LORD and His strength; seek His face always" (1 Chron. 16:11), to "pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests, with this in mind being alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people" (Eph. 6:18), to pray if anyone is in trouble (James 5:13), to "not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God" (Phil 4:6), to "be joyful in hope, patient in affliction and faithful in prayer" (Rom. 12:12). And when we do we have the promises that "the prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working" (James 5.16), and "He will respond to the prayer of the destitute; He will not despise their plea" (Ps. 102:17).

So, in these times of pandemic, in which people are afflicted in many ways, in addition to their health, the Lord's people ought to pray! To that end we are going to be streaming a prayer service on Wednesday nights for the next number of weeks. This will start tomorrow, Wednesday the 25th at 7:30 pm. Log on to our YouTube channel just like you would for a church service and we will join our hearts together in prayer.
