Welcome to Bethlehem Covenant's online ministry. Last Sunday's sermon was entitled "Called By God." We talked about God's call to the prophet Jeremiah and how God used him in spite of what Jeremiah thought were all his inadequacies. God calls us as well to certain tasks and He calls us to BE as well. It not only matters what we do, but WHO we are is just as important. God gifts all of us with certain talents or abilities that we can use to glorify Him and help others. What has God called you to do or what is He calling you to do right now? Who does He want you to be--what sort of things are you passionate about? God calls all of us and uses us depsite our sinfulness. Praise God!
Here are some upcoming events on our calendar: Bible Study--Thursday nights at church at 7pm. We are studying the Gospel of John. Our Fall worship Schedule will begin on Sept. 9th. The worship service will start at 10:30am. Choir will rehearse at 9:00am. Movie Night—Saturday, Sept. 8th at 6:00pm. The movie is called “Oh, God!” Comedian George Burns stars in this as God Himself. God, in the guise of a wisecracking old gent, decides to makes His presence known to a harried grocery clerk (John Denver) so He can get the message out that "everything on earth can still work if we want it to." Filled with pithy one-liners delivered by the master, Oh, God! was scripted by "M*A*S*H" creator Larry Gelbart. Please sign up on the sign-up sheet downstairs so we have an idea of how many will be coming for pizza. Pizza at 6pm; movie and discussion to follow.
