Our summer garden party is becoming a regular fixture on our church calendar and we would love for you to join us again this year.

As a part of the local community of Laleston, we want to share with our friends and neighbours and to invite you to come and join us for this free event. The garden is ready, we are hoping the weather will be kind and there will be something to do for everyone.

We have recently used grant money from BAVO to update some of our kitchen facilities to help with this event and others in the future. The grant was part of the Suncredit community benefit fund.

There will be food and drink, places to sit and chat either inside or in the garden (there will be shade too!) and activities to occupy children. There will be some live music to enjoy, Christian books to take away and a chance to meet people from the church.

Perhaps you have had past connections with the church. Or you might be new to the area and just curious. Maybe you have never been to Bethel before. Whoever you are, we would love to see you.

In the Christian message of good news, centred on Jesus Christ, we believe we have the best news in the world and we would love to share that with you.

We look forward to seeing you!

We were trying to think of a snappy name for our new men’s meeting, but all we have so far is Men Of Bethel (MOB) so that will do for now!

We are going to have our first ever men’s meeting at Bethel, Friday 24th May at 10.00am.

It will be a men’s breakfast, with bacon rolls and other refreshments (so don’t have breakfast first!) and an opportunity for men to get together and socialise.

We realise that loneliness and isolation are a reality for many men, especially in their retirement or bereavement. We realise it can also be difficult to acknowledge this and so we want to provide a space in our church programme for men to come together, get to know each other, talk together and we hope too, discuss some of the big issues of life.

We are a church that loves the Lord Jesus Christ and loves the bible so there will also be time to hear someone’s story of their faith and maybe ask them about what they believe.

The event is totally free and we would love you to come if you are able. If there is interest, we will be holding other similar men’s meetings in the future.
