Fourth Sunday after Pentecost
Father's Day
June 16, 2024

Pastor: Ralph Wrightstone Bulletin Insert Photos Music Director: Travis Oaks

This Fourth Sunday After Pentecost is a special day on the Calendar, called Father's Day. You may be able to enter a lively conversation with others about whether it should be: Father's Day, Fathers' Day or Fathers Day...and why or why not...perhaps outside the church walls. Tapping on one of the graphic images at the top of this page will reveal some items that may help inform your own thoughts about the special relationship between father and child...be sure to listen to The Father's Day Song.

Thursday is the Summer Solstice and the First Day of Summer on the calendar and the Resource Page has some items about what these mean and how they are celebrated.

Click on the "Bethel United Methodist Church" script above
for links to some Resource materials for today's service.

For those unable to attend the 11:00 AM Sunday services at the church, a new service will be available here online before 10:00 am each Sunday morning, using the same format as the on-site service. So you may "gather" here for an "Early Service" at 10:00 or the traditional service at 11:00...actually it will be available here at any time all week. We hope that you will find it a refreshing place to come into God's house.

NOTE: Each part of this online service consists of an audio file and, for most, a Link to 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 the "Bethel 06/16/24 Service" browser tab or return to this window to open the Link to the "slides". It is best to stop the playing of one Audio segment and close its tab or window before starting another.

We hope that you will fully participate in the service provided here, taking the time to raise your voice or read along with the hymns and responses, and listening to the recorded messages and songs that have been prepared for you. Realize that, though not meeting face-to-face, you are virtually gathering with many others for this time of worship, celebration and spiritual refreshment.

Thank you for coming. Our prayer will be that we will soon all gather again for worship in Bethel's Sanctuary, but until then we'll be here for you on Sunday morning.
