Today the bible takes us to Bethlehem, where three kings follow a brilliant star to a manger in Bethlehem. He is a rising star himself, this child, destined to light the world with goodness, and the kings are bringing gifts to honor him. But the real revelation of Epiphany is that Jesus, as a newborn infant, is being chased and pursued by a paranoid King Herod...and is marked for death.
Join us in thought and prayer.
Start your year with Bethel's next Bible study on Saturday, January 11th, from 10-11:30 a.m. Our topic will be different genres of writing in the Bible. Understanding the Bible leads to connecting with God in small ways that mean something to you. Bring a Bible if you like, use one of ours, or google our readings on your phone. Reply on sign-up sheets at the church or through the Message Center, below.
Leave the cooking to us and bring a friend or family member to Bethel's January Senior Dinner, on Tuesday evening, January 14th, at 4:30 pm. All are welcome; please make a reservation via Muskego Food Pantry at (262) 679-6448 with dinner count and name of party. After dinner at 6:00 pm, we offer optional evening worship to celebrate God's presence in our lives.
Bethel's "Noisy Can Collection" earns its name when you drop your spare change into a tin can and shake it, drawing our attention to community needs that might otherwise go unnoticed. January's collection goes to the Pastor's Discretionary Fund, which is used spontaneously to help people in need. Please donate at Bethel (in person or message/call us) to participate.
Have a cup of Joe with Pastor Jaime and friends from Bethel. Stop in at Vintage Grounds, a local coffee shop in Muskego, on Tuesdays in January from 1 to 2 pm. Bring your thoughts on life, faith, Scripture, or whatever you'd like to share. Tap the link for Vintage Grounds' address and menu info.
