Bethlen Almanac 1998 (Ligonier)

Keleti Egyházmegye

The other group includes the Senior Circle. This group meets once a month offering an opportunity for our older members to share their love and fellowship with others during our time of outings. The Church possesses a 25-passenger bus which is available for their needs.

Last year we reorganized our Sunday School to provide a good Christian education to our young people as well as our Youth Fellowship, offering an opportunity for their spiritual growth. Every summer we hold our Vacation Bible School, when for a week our children find a good time of sharing and learning the ways of Christ.

Our church may be the only church in the United States that owns its own cemetery. Our average attendance is 125 on Sundays. We hold Bible Fellowship classes also for the spiritual well being of our members twice a month.

It is our hope that God will bless us in all our endeavors.
