Sun. June 29: The Bicentennial publicity sub-committee will have a short meeting after church. Please attend if you're on the committee and able to come. We especially need to work on a list of former pastors and members to invite by mail to the bicentennial.

Groundbreaking News!

Sun. June 15th Bethlehem will have a groundbreaking for our new Fellowship Hall after the 10 a.m. worship service (the groundbreaking will take place at approximately 11 a.m. just behind the church at the site of the new fellowship hall). Light refreshments will be served.

All church members and family and friends, as well as the public and our neighbors are welcome to attend the service and the groundbreaking.

We are excited about our new building and we are in hopes it will be completed by the time of our 200th anniversary celebration. Mark your calendars now - on Sun. Nov. 16, beginning at 11 a.m. the church will celebrate our heritage as the oldest congregation in Daviess County, Kentucky. We will mark the 200th anniversary with a luncheon and special worship services. More information will be posted here as we get closer to the date.
