Happy Father's Day!

Today we give thanks for fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, mentors, and all the men who have shared God's love through their guidance, support, and care.

Let us pray:

Heavenly Father, we thank You for the gift of loving fathers and father figures. Bless them with wisdom, strength, patience, and joy. May they continue to reflect Your love in their homes, churches, and communities. Comfort those who are missing their fathers today, those who long to be fathers, and those for whom this day is difficult. Surround each of us with Your grace and remind us that we are all Your beloved children.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

Wishing all a blessed and joyful Father's Day from your Bethany family.

With more than 330 children attending, this incredible week would not have been possible without everyone who decorated, donated snacks, prepared materials, and served throughout the week.
Thank you for sharing your time, talents, and love to make VBS a fun and faith-filled experience for our children and community!
