Bethany was the first church we visited after moving here a year and a half ago. We visited because we knew it was an inclusive community that focused on social justice and serving others.
Less than a decade ago, I was a "newbie" to Bethany. Today, I think that Bethany is a church that can serve others, in particular refugees, the homeless and seniors on tight, fixed incomes. I dream of the day that Bethany's undeveloped land has affordable housing for those groups.
