In that regard we incorporate elements of worship that are celebrative and reflective. Central place is given to Word and Sacrament. The sacrament of communion is served once a month on the first Sunday of the month. Volunteer music opportunities include solos, small groups, choir, handbells, and orchestra. Bethel offers a traditional worship service at 8:45 a.m., featuring the organ, choir, handbells, special music, liturgical elements, and possessing a quieter, reflective ethos. The 10:00 a.m. service is a "blended" style praise worship service which combines traditional and contemporary elements. Coffee, refreshments, and the usual "artery clogging" goodies are available beginning at 8:30 a.m. prior to the worship services. Adult Sunday school classes meet either 9:45am for those attending the 8:45am worship service OR at 9:15am for those attending the 10am worship service. Children's christian education begins at 9:15am when children are released from the early service, and continue until 11am with a variety of learning activities and combining elements of education, hand chimes, and junior worship. Parents will be free to bring and/or pick up their children at any time during this block of time. Sunday School is available for all ages. Click here for more information. ![]() |
