Weekly Announcements Annual Meeting and Potluck: This Sunday New Church Directory Now Available: on the blue carts Please Sign Up! There are opportunites open for folks to sign the coffee hour calendar and worship assistant calendars. Thank you! Per Capita These are the funds that are sent yearly to Presbytery and General Assembly to pay for administrative expenses. It is $40 per member again this year; and it would be great if you are able to pay an additional $5 to help those who might have a difficulty with this. Thank you so much! Third Sundays: Buildings and Grounds So this year we will try a new thing. Richard Lybecker is the new Elder in charge of everything Building and Grounds. An idea for this year is to have interested persons show up at Bethany on every third Saturday at 9:00 AM, have some conversation/coffee, and then engage in some type of project Richard might suggest for us to work on that day. We have things that need to be done both inside and outside the church. We need hands to do ‘em! So put it on your calendar!
