Good Tuesday morning to you,
Bethany seeks several volunteers to keep the kitchen stocked and clean; schedule volunteers; and perform other small-but-essential tasks. Some of the work can be done from home. Please come to an organizational meeting at 2 p.m. today, Tuesday, Jan. 28, in the fellowship hall. Questions? Contact the office at 206-842-4241 or see Carol Fenner.
Hope to see you here,
- Rachel Pritchett, office administrator
Good morning again,
Bethany conducted its annual meeting last Sunday, and about 65 people attended. The group passed a $417,969 budget for 2020, and enthusiastically approved the resolution below honoring our counters and financial secretary. Here are some images. Minutes of the meeting are posted in the hallway, or they can be sent to you.

Resolution in Honor of Those Who we Can Count Upon
Bethany Lutheran Church Annual Meeting
Jan. 26, 2020
Whereas, Kristi Sutton, Jennie Harris, Barbara Michael and Carolyn Weiss have for years faithfully served as behind-the scenes volunteers during financial counting and accounting; and
Whereas, Kristi Sutton does her work quietly and without fanfare, often in a vacated church, due to the late hour; and
Whereas, Jennie, Barbara, and Carolyn each Tuesday count the offerings from the previous weekends, doing so with accuracy and a good spirit; and
Whereas, at times these counting duties can involve “noisy offerings” consisting of hundreds and hundreds of coins; therefore,
Be it resolved, that we the people of Bethany Lutheran Church, Bainbridge Island, Wash., recognize and celebrate the spirit and ministry of Kristi, Barbara, Jennie and Carolyn, and today bestow upon them the title of “Those Who Bethany Can Count On.”
