Spring Cleaning Day |

Bethany will be having a cleaning day on Thursday,
March 25th to prepare the chapel for the sacred celebrations of Holy
Week. Our work will begin at 9:00AM. Please join us if you have the time
and ability to offer. |
|
Adoration of the Blessed
Sacrament |
|
During the month of March, we will have a period of
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament before the start of Sunday morning
Masses. This is an opportunity to spend quality time with the Lord and
to prepare ourselves for Holy Eucharist. Remember, before the service,
be silent and speak to the Lord. During the service, let the Lord speak
to you. After the service, speak to one another. |
|
Easter Lilies |
|
During the month of March, we will have a special
collection at Lord’s Day services to buy lilies to
decorate the chapel for Easter Sunday. Please consider an additional
donation to beautify the House of the Lord. |
|
Bethany’s
Warming Tree |
|
Bethany will begin its tradition of using the
“Warming Tree” to collect scarves, mittens, and hats for children who,
due to personal circumstances, live in group children’s homes. Please
join us in our effort to provide warmth-giving clothing to children in
need by decorating our Warming Tree with your gifts of Winter apparel.
Thanks to your generosity last year, many children were blessed with
your gifts of warmth. |
|
Bethany Food Drive |
|
We will continue collecting non-perishable food items
for area food pantries. Please bring your donations of canned goods and
dry goods to Saturday evening and Sunday morning Masses. “Hunger never
takes a vacation.” |

Prayer Requests |
As a community, we
support each other through prayer in communion with Jesus Christ our
Lord and Savior. Please let us know of your prayer requests. |

Bethanys Tree of Life
A memorial to your loved ones. |
Have the name of a loved one who has gone
home to our Lord added to Bethanys Tree of Life, located in the
Chapel of Mercy. For details, visit the Tree of Life or call us. |
