Monthly Picnics: General Information

Sunday, August 8

Connect with others from Bethlehem in your neighborhoods this summer by taking the church into the community! On the second Sundays in June, July, and August, we’re asking for several of you within the church to volunteer to host regional picnics in areas around the Metro.

If you would like to host a picnic in your region, please contact Jeremy Hermann, and he’ll help you get started. 

We’ll promote the picnics in the Star newsletter in advance.
