3 A big thank you to Farmhouse Catering (Steve & Pam Lynn) for the delicious meal served this past Wednesday evening to benefit Pastor Mike & Drema Mccoy at First Baptist Church of Duchesne, Utah. Thanks to your generosity we collected $613 to help with improvements and ministries. The church is growing and will be starting a Griefshare class, Royal Ambassadors & Girls in Action soon. They have just completed the addition pictured. They are very exited about the cross on the church as the Mormon/LDS do not put crosses on their buildings. This helps shine God's love throughout their community. Pastor Mike & Drema send their appreciation and love to our Bethany family for the prayers & support. They are a real encouragement to them as they minister in Utah. What another beautiful day our Lord has created! Too often we do not realize how blessed we are until we come across distress. I want to let everyone know that I sincerely appreciate all of the visits, phone calls, texts, cards and especially prayers. Prayer is our greatest priviledge as well as our greatest responsibility. In Christ, Robert Broxson John 12:26 A big thank you to everyone who helped support our 8th annual auction this year. It was a great day and a successful event! We will announce the amount raised soon!
