Bethel Sunrise Service

Thank you for coming at such an early hour for this Sunrise Service. We are gathering in the "Wedding Chapel" on the banks of Bethel Pond, just down the road from the church building. It was at this site, 189 years ago, that a brush arbor meeting was held marking the beginning of Bethel's presence as a worshiping community. Easter Sunrise services have been held here yearly for almost 35 years. Normally there would be cinnamon rolls, coffee cake, coffee and juice to share before or after the service. For now, just settle in to remember that first Easter morning.

NOTE: Each part of the service consists of an audio file and, for some, a pdf file of "projection slides". Click on the symbol to play the audio file under a separate browser tab or in a new window. Then select this "Bethel Sunrise Service" tab to return and open the Link to any related "slides". It is best to stop the playing of an Audio file and close its tab or window before starting another.
