Many thanks!
The people of Bethlehem would like to offer their thanks to all those visitors and friends who helped with or attended our bicentennial celebration. Thanks especially to Bro. Spurrier for leading the music during the event. It was wonderful to see so many friends and family of the church gathered to recognize Bethlehem's heritage. Thanks to Natalie and Joyce for developing the program for the bicentennial.
Thanks again to all those (especially the Brown, Boswell, and Bivins families) who worked so hard on the new Fellowship Hall. As the meal at the bicentennial showed, it is a beautiful, wonderful place for our church family to gather and share.
We want to invite and welcome anyone who is interested to come be part of our church family as we begin our journey into the next 200 years!
Pictures of the Bicentennial events will be posted here soon!

BETHLEHEM BICENTENNIAL - April 19, 2009
Bethlehem United Methodist church will be celebrating a very special event on April 19, 2009. The church will be holding special services in recognition of our 200th anniversary and in dedication of our new Fellowship Hall.

Hymns from different eras in church history will also be part of the service. A scrapbook and other memorabilia will also be available for viewing. At the close of this service those present will move to the adjacent brand-new fellowship hall for a dedication of the new building.
Following the dedication will be a time for fellowship and catching up, followed by a meal for all those in attendance. The meal will begin at approximately 12:30 in the new Fellowship Hall.
All current and former members, friends of the church, community members and visitors, and especially former pastors are invited and encouraged to attend this exciting and historical event.
