FALL 2026
“Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts…” – Colossians 3:15
Grace and peace to you in the precious and exalted name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
As the warm golden rays of summer gently yield to the crisp autumn breeze, and the leaves begin their magnificent transformation into shades of crimson, amber, and gold, our hearts are naturally drawn to reflection and thanksgiving. Autumn is a sacred reminder of God’s unfailing faithfulness
across every season of life. It is a time when we gather the spiritual harvest of seed planted in prayer, celebrate the warmth of Christian fellowship, and align our hearts
afresh with the purpose of God.
As we step into this new season together at Bethany Church, we pray that your soul finds deep rest, steady courage, and abiding joy in the presence of the Almighty. May this autumn be for you and your family a true Season of Hope & Harvest.
God moved powerfully in our midst throughout the summer months! We praise Him for the lives touched, faith strengthened, and memories forged across all generations of
our church family: Vacation Bible School; Camp on the Go; Bible Study Finale. “The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy.” – Psalm 126:3
As the schedule settles into the rhythmic pattern of autumn, our weekly ministries are returning with fresh vision, deepened commitment, and open arms.
At Bethany Church, our mission remains unshakeable: To glorify God by exalting Jesus Christ, nurturing believers into mature discipleship, and boldly proclaiming the Good News of salvation to our community and the world. This autumn, as we witness the harvest in the fields, let us be reminded of the spiritual harvest that awaits us. By guarding our hearts with Christ’s peace and keeping our eyes fixed on Him, we become a radiant lighthouse of hope to a hurting world.
We are one body.
– Value church unity above personal preference; we were redeemed together to reflect Christ’s reconciliation to the world.
– Cultivate thankfulness – Gratitude is the soil in which peace flourishes.
– Intentionally practice daily thanksgiving for God’s spiritual and physical blessings.
– Keep your eyes on Jesus – Amid shifting seasons and busy schedules, fix your gaze on the Author and Finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12:2).
– Engage with intention – Step boldly into this fall season by actively participating in weekly worship, small group Bible study, and local outreach.
May the Lord of peace Himself give you peace at all times and in every way. May your home be filled with the warmth of His presence, your heart with the joy of His harvest, and your soul with the rest that only Christ can provide.
In His Abounding Love and Grace,
Pastor Adam
