Another year has flown by and many of us

are left wondering where it has gone.

Sound familiar? Forty two years of paint

and crayons and laughter and don’t for-

get diapers! What a terrific ministry Beth-

any Community School has been for this

community. We will never know how

deeply this school has touched the lives of

countless families.

Next year we add a new chapter to the

evolving metamorphosis which is this loving

program, we will be a five day program.

Please keep Bethany School in your

prayers.

There is an excitement

that runs through our

halls of growth and po-

tential for our program

and we hope that over-

flows into church growth

for you as well. Enjoy

your summer and be

safe. Sandy

It is our joy to have the need for childcare

every Sunday! We will employ one person

every Sunday and need a volunteer

each Sunday as well.

For safety, we always want two adults in

our childcare room. If we have 8 volun-

teers, it would mean only one Sunday

every other month. Are you interested in

affirming this new life-filled step in our

ministry?

Let Kelli know.

It's Time to Paint

The roof is on, the sides of the house are in

place, the inside is taking shape, so it's time

now to paint.

The Habitat for Humanity house is coming

along nicely. If you've been waiting for your

chance to help this could be the time. We'll

be painting this Saturday.

Remember, you can volunteer for the

morning or afternoon, or both. Just sign up

on the church bulletin board or call Alice

Jane Lanier at 918-299-0699. That way we'll

know how many people to count on for the

upcoming Saturdays.

Words cannot express

the gratitude we feel at

the many expressions of

love and concern our

Bethany family has

shown to us these past

few months.

The care packages, cards, letters, calls,

emails, and especially the prayers have

meant more to us than we can say.

Thank you all,

Love, Judy and Loren
