On Sunday, May 22, Bethany Lutheran Church is canceling two of its worship services in order to provide members and guests with a service opportunity. The Church won't be contained by walls - we'll be let loose in Denver. Bethany is calling this day, "BE THE BLESSING DAY!" A sign will say that worship is canceled at these times and that the congregation has joined the service in the neighborhoods of the community.
More than 600 people have already signed up to serve on this day! More than 20 partner sites have been identified as service opportunities. One's spiritual gift might be prayer, so a special service will be held at 10:30 a.m. to pray that we might "BE THE BLESSING."
