The Planning Session that was scheduled for this Saturday at the church has been postponed until Saturday, Feb. 6th. It will still be at from 8:45am – 12:00noon and we will still serve biscuits and ham. Please mark your calendars and make a special effort to attend. We hope this is not an inconvenience or conflict with any of you, but Pastor John is such a vital part of our planning, Judson felt that this would be the best thing for us all.
The District Planning Meeting is at Sugarloaf UMC and begins at 2:30. All Admin Council Members, Staff Members and SPRC Members are encouraged to attend this Event.

We have been praying for weeks for a new youth minister and God has provided. Mr. Scott (Scotty) Scoggins has accepted the position of youth minister for Bethesda. He brings a lot of enthusiasm and experience to this position. Scotty has been a Christian for many years and has worked with many groups of youth and churches. He has been a youth sponsor and high-school Sunday school teacher and youth leader at every church. He has created and led a youth band (4 different groups as youth graduated). Scotty has led worship and plays many instruments. He is married to our own Shelly Scoggins, our Pre-School director. They have two children, Chelsea and Brandon. He has a BBA Degree from West Georgia College in Carrollton where he was in Campus Outreach. Scotty says, “I love God and I love people-especially young people. I’ve been called throughout my life to hang out with and provide guidance to teens and young adults. My past and current experiences have given me a perspective of compassion, empathy, and love for those truly seeking to be better today than they were yesterday with an eye for fulfilling their God-given purpose.”
Scotty will be proudly introduced this Sunday, January 3, in our church services.
Welcome Scott Scoggins

The SPRC would like to give you the opportunity to share in a love offering for our staff. This is the time of year that we can give back to the staff for the time and talents that they give us throughout the year. Please bring your offerings this Sunday, mark it “staff”, and drop it in the offering plate.
- Thumbs Up for Our Staff
Bethesda turned out in force to show our staff how much we appreciate them. There were plenty of laughs and lots of good food to go around at the staff appreciation luncheon, which was held on November 22nd. Thanks to all of our hard working staff for all they do for us!
Thanks from Athel!

Thank you to everyone for the wonderful meal yesterday in honor of the Staff. We have some fabulous cooks here at Bethesda. Thank you to Cammie Jane and Frankie Anderson, Carole Martin and Felix, Wanda Davis, Barbara and Wayne Davis for decorating and setting up the meal and of course those who helped clean up. I told someone today that this is my favorite Sunday of the whole year. Athel
Staff Appreciation Luncheon
Nov 15
Each year at this time the SPRC, with the help of Family Ministries, sponsor a covered dish Staff Appreciation Luncheon. This year it will be on Sunday, November 22nd, immediately following the 11:00 service. Each family is asked to bring plenty of food so that there will be a good buffet for everyone to share. Let’s show the staff how much we appreciate them by having a good attendance.
