Announcement
- Please remind your Grow Group to make sure they are updated in our church app(Church Center), especially with email as we start to communicate to the church about Senior Pastor Search updates. The app is the easiest way to stay connected with what is going on around Bethany, from filling out connection cards, to registering for events, and even the church directory is all in there!
