Easter Sunday Worship - March 31st - 8:30 AM at Bethel
Today, the Bible takes us on a journey of transformation, beginning with a joyful procession and leading, in stark contrast, to the "end" of Jesus. We join the palm-waving procession as Jesus arrives in Jerusalem, and then turn to the story of Jesus' passion recorded in Mark's gospel, as we prepare our hearts to celebrate the great Three Days of Jesus' death and resurrection. Join us in worship this week. Dates for Holy Week services, including Easter Sunday worship are shown next.

What is truth? Today we consider how the Spirit transforms us through stories - and through people - we are not inclined to listen to or trust. Our Bible reference is the book of Acts, and how the Spirit alters our perspective, transforms us, and transforms our communities. Join us for midweek Lenten worship, courtesy of our friends at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in Menomonee Falls.
Use your imagination to draw closer to God during Lent. For a link to the Lenten prayer calendar and some ideas for praying in color, visit https://prayingincolor.com/resources.
Our Noisy Can for the month of March helps people living in poverty get back on their feet. Hope Center is a non-profit organization that serves the basic needs of financial assistance, food, and clothing for people living in Waukesha County. Your spare change makes a difference: Look for the Noisy Can when you visit Bethel this month.

*Bethel's "Noisy Can Collection" earns its name when you drop your spare change into a tin can, drawing our attention to community needs that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Sometimes just talking about God helps us grow in faith and hope. Have a cup of Joe with Pastor Jaime and talk about Scripture, faith, life, or whatever is on your mind.
Stop in at Vintage Grounds, a local coffee shop, from 1-2 pm on Tuesdays in March. Click here for more info or directions.
