God is listening. Even in seasons of uncertainty, struggle, and waiting, we can trust that God hears our prayers, knows our needs, and remains present with us every step of the way.

As we conclude Rooted in Scripture Month as part of our Living Legacy Celebration, Minister Michael Bradley reflects on Jeremiah 29:11–14 and the assurance that when we seek God wholeheartedly, we will find Him.

Throughout May, we have explored what it means to build lives rooted in God's Word. This devotional serves as a reminder that we are never alone—God is listening, God is present, and God is faithful.

📖 Scripture: Jeremiah 29:11–14

Boston Medical Center Community Event - From Access to Action: Building Healthier Neighborhoods Together
Bethel family, join us this Friday, May 29, from 5:00–8:00 PM for a community-centered conversation on food access, environment, nutrition, chronic disease, and the resources that shape health in our neighborhoods.
Together, we’ll explore how research, lived experience, and community wisdom can move us from conversation to meaningful action. Refreshments will be served, because meaningful conversation is even better with something on the table. We hope to see you Friday!
