1. BETHANY CHURCH’S MORNING WORSHIP SERVICE TIME-REST>>>
“The Early Bird cathes the 1st worm” just like what thethough says. In Bethany church…”The early service cathes the energetic and freshes heart”. Here in our church, We’ve noticed that the mind and heart of our Brethrens here are look like tired at the time of our Proper service. So we’ve change the time of our proper worship service. It Becomes early now. We want to praise God and Worship Him early in the morning. Like the popular prophets in old Testament, they praise and worship God early in the morning. Our Service was set in 9:00 o’clock in the morning but now, the proper service is at 8:00 o’clock in the morning and followed by our Sunday School.
2. Bethany Church 18th Anniversary last May 16, 2004>>>
“Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, your and your Households shall be save!” Acts 16:31. That is the theme verse of our Church Anniversary. Its just like a semi-Youth Celebration. Since in real Life, a debut of a girl when she turns 18 in her Birthday, She will now a Lady. So we here at Bethany Church we put a Formal Motive in our Anniversary. The Boys wore a long sleeve or Barong in others and in girls wore a gown. It sees like a wedding day that the sanctuary has well decorated. But we want to be include also a Youth-Oriented type of Service. So we put the chairs in a semi circle style (just like in a big entertainment dome), we made a much wider space near the front so that congregation will freely move if they want to dance to the Lord with the tune of disco-modern praise songs and solemnly worship songs. What a great and How awesome our God is for all He has done in us.
