HEROES -Sermon Series begins July 27
The world prepares for the 2008 Olympic games and in just a few days we will be familiar with names of athletes we've never heard before. We're drawn to their stories. We admire their determination, their discipline, their impressive skill to overcome odds and stay the course. These athletes become heroes, but heroes don't always make headlines. Throughout the Bible we read about ordinary people through whom God accomplishes extraordinary things. It's all a part of God's plan. Over the next several weeks you will hear stories of strange and amazing events that took place in the lives of some people in the Bible. Listen. Learn about God's infinite wisdom to work through ordinary people to create heroes in the faith. Discover how God chooses to work through you today.

Funky WindowsIt was a chaotic few months as the Bethlehem youth gathered in many and varied places while the renovation of "their" space on the third floor of West Hall was completed. While a few youth miss the old space in a sentimental way, most reactions are overwhelmingly positive to the brand new spaces. Rebecca Chapin (freshman) says, "I think the 3rd floor is amazing! A whole new learning, gathering place! Awesome! It's a warmer place to learn; also when you enjoy being somewhere, you'll always want to come back."
