Chuck and Athel will serve you your dinner with a smile!

On Wednesday nights, we have dinner together in the fellowship hall cooked by our own Athel Morris. If you haven’t tasted Athel’s food, you don’t know what you’re missing! If you would like to join us, call the church office and let Athel know, or send her an email at AthelMorris @ bethesdaunited.org After dinner, there is something for everyone to do. We have Pioneer Club for the kids, the youth meet down in the pavillion, there is a Bible study led by our pastor, and our chancel choir rehearses in the choir room. Handbell choir follows at 8:00 PM. Join us for some great fellowship!

Our usual schedule is:

5:45pm – Supper

ATTENTION!! ATTENTION!! Come one, come all. Bring your sweetie to our Valentine Dinner Wednesday night. We will have delicious food (as always) and our very own super-talented Brock Derringer will be providing “mood music” during the dinner hour. You will have an opportunity to have your picture made with your sweetheart(s) and you will be surrounded with decorations that will put you in a very “loving” mood. I know you will be showing your love for your special people, whether that be your spouse, your children, your family, your friends, or all of the above.

Remember to call or email Athel by Monday morning to make reservations for dinner if you do not have standing reservations.
Thank You and hope to see you all Wednesday night.
