Bethany Participates in Anti-Asian Hate Rally at State Capitol

Bethany members and friends joined several thousand others at. the State Capitol May 15 to call for an end to hate crimes against those of Asian descent. Among those present were Rev. Janice Kamikawa, Cathy Sapunor, Barbara Greene and Jackie Sneed. The rally was one of many held across the nation to raise awareness of and demand action to prevent discrimination and violence.

WORSHIPING IN SAFETY

Despite the lifting of many COVID-19 related restrictions across the country, Bethany is for the time being delaying the return of Sunday worship services to the sanctuary.

Worship services continue to be held either in the very well-ventilated Social Hall or outdoors on the church lawn, depending on the weather.

Services are held Sundays at 10:30 a.m. Arrive by 10:15 a.m. to enjoy the beautiful pre-service music!

Here are Bethany’s “safe and socially distanced” guidelines we ask that “in person” worship service participants follow:

• Whether or not you have received both COVID-19 inoculations, please your mask indoors.

• Please keep distance between you and non-family members and refrain from hugs and other contact.

• Please do not attend if you are feeling unwell or running a fever.

• Everyone participating in person will be asked to check in upon arrival so we can keep track for safety’s sake.

• If you become ill following a worship service, please contact the church office ASAP.

Services will be available for viewing at home live on Facebook or later Sunday night on the website.

You can also hear the worship service live from your car in the church parking lot. The service is broadcast low=frequency (94.9 on your car radio dial) within the immediate vicinity of the church.
