Welcome to Bethlehem Covenant's online ministry.

Happy Father's Day to all fathers out there today!  God bless you! 

Today's sermon is about grace and forgiveness.  Jesus got into trouble for the company he kept at table.  The charge against Jesus that "This man eats and drinks with sinners," is well documented.  The church lives in the great, gracious promise that Jesus eats and drinks with sinners, welcomes sinners, forgives sinners - like us!  In our text this morning Jesus praises a sinful woman who comes to Him out of humility and gratitude.  Others want to reject her, but Jesus accepts her and forgives her.  Will we do the same to others?

Here are some upcoming events on our calendar:

Mailing Fundraiser—we have another mailing to do from Ramsey Rehab as a fundraiser for CHIC.  This one is 7,000 postcards.  We will meet at church this Tuesday evening (19th) at 6pm.  Come then or later when you are able. 

Bible Study--Thursday at 7pm at church.  We are studying the Gospel of John.  All are welcome.

Youth Group—this Friday we will be going to Blackstone Valley Cinema to see the movie “Evan Almighty.”  Probably around 7pm—showtime to be determined. 

Movie Night--on Saturday, June 23rd at church.  The movie this month is “Bruce Almighty.”  This is a comedy starring Jim Carrey, Morgan Freeman and Jennifer Aniston and it is rated PG-13.  Here is a brief synopsis: Bruce Nolan (Jim Carrey) toils as a "human interest" television reporter in Buffalo, N.Y.  Despite his high ratings and the love of his beautiful girlfriend, Grace (Jennifer Aniston), Bruce remains unfulfilled.  At the end of the worst day in his life, he angrily ridicules God—and the Almighty (Morgan Freeman) responds, endowing Bruce with all of His divine powers.  The question is, can Bruce improve on perfection?  The movie is about an hour and forty minutes long.  We will meet at for pizza (please try to let Pastor Dave know ahead of time if you are coming for pizza) and the movie will begin shortly after .  A discussion time will follow.
