​​THE FAMILY TABLE: is all about discipling children and teens! Whether you have your own children/teens or are invested in the lives of someone else’s children/teens, we welcome you to join us July 26 for Beyond the Table, our summer BBQ party. Parents, grandparents, honorary aunts/uncles…come join us for lunch and enjoy spending time together.

Meet us at Bannerman Park right after the service on July 26. We will provide burgers, chips, watermelon, and dessert. You bring your lawn chairs and water bottles. Sign up here, so we know how much food we need. (Rain out location is the fellowship hall).

​

BANNERMAN BACKPACK DRIVE: We will be continuing our tradition of providing school supplies and backpacks for the Bannerman community, but there will be a few changes this year.  More details about how you can contribute to this cause will be available in the coming weeks.​​

BETHEL SUMMER READING CHALLENGE: Looking for a simple, joy-filled way to grow your child’s faith, build lasting memories, and boost literacy—rain or shine? This summer let’s READ! Join our Summer Reading Challenge and pick up a bag of carefully selected books from our church library! We’ve got something for every age and stage:

• Picture books (perfect for sharing as a whole family, or as grandparents!)

• Books for Grades 1–3 (some for kids to read, some for parents to share)

• Chapter books for Grades 4–6

• Engaging teen reads

Keep your bag for up to 3 weeks. When you return it, your child will:

• Pick an instant prize

• Be entered in a draw for an awesome end-of-summer prize!

 Make reading a meaningful part of your family’s summer—because faith can grow one story at a time.
