Life is a School of Love...

 Welcome to Bethany United Methodist Church,
where love makes the difference.
“…God is love.” 1 John 4:8
 
What Bethany knows about God is that God is love. 
And even more, God is a community of love.
Bethany is part of God’s community of love and we welcome you to share in God’s love, here with us on James Island.
God didn’t give us His love to keep - but to give away. 
Finding new and creative ways to share God’s love is the spiritual adventure we are on.  Come with us!
 
Life isn’t perfect, we aren’t perfect, but we are learning to love like Jesus loves, sacrificially.
Because life gets complicated, we keep our time together and worship simple.
As the Apostle Paul recommended to the Romans, (12:9,10),
we…“Love sincerely. Hate evil. Hold on to what is good.  Be devoted to each other like a loving family.”
 
None of us were meant to journey through life alone. 
Come find strength for your journey, 
among the spiritual community of Bethany UMC,
​where love makes the difference.

Pastor's Pen

Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent, a period of forty days leading up to the celebration of Easter.  It is a time when we are free to acknowledge our frailty, seek forgiveness for our failures, and open ourselves to God’s tender mercies and healing power.  February 26th at noon we will offer an Ash Wednesday Service with imposition of ashes.  The imposition of ashes is a reminder of both our helplessness and our mortality; our need for grace and our resolve to walk the way of Jesus.  Those who are willing may come forward to receive the sign of the cross on their foreheads.

​I'll see you in the Sanctuary.
Peace of Christ,
Cindy
