Bethany offers a broad range of programs to help those who are in time of need.
Stephen Ministry
An outreach to individuals experiencing serious life problems. Members of the congregation receive special training to be of help to individuals in crisis.
In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, with all the stressful occurrences associated with modern day lifestyles; we sometimes experience situations that are more crisis oriented and can be overwhelming, i.e., divorce, hospitalization, job loss or loss of a loved one. Stephen Ministry is devoted to helping others who are experiencing such crises in their lives. Stephen Ministers go through extensive training in caring for and helping others in any number of stressful situations pertaining to life's unfortunate events. If you feel like you just need someone to talk with who is outside of your situation, who will listen attentively and hold you up in personal prayer, as well as protect your confidentiality, then please contact church office for the contact information. We have Stephen Ministers who are here to help you.

choosing wisely before you divorce
|
| Choosing Wisely Before You Divorce is a program offered by Bethany to those who have troubled marriages and are considering divorce. We desire that those who are in the middle of this turmoil, at whatever stage of the process, have access to good information and a chance to think through the implications from a Christian perspective. This is not marriage counseling, but is a video-based program, prepared by pastors, psychologists, marriage counselors, lawyers, and other experts, helping the couple work through the various facets of the divorce decision, including legal, physical, financial, spiritual, emotional, and effects on children. Childcare provided. The program at Bethany is facilitated by Mark Boerger. |
