                                        "GROW" STUDY

A few years ago the Lay Servant Ministries team of the Susquehanna Conference created materials for a new laity class called “Grow” that is focused on helping people grow in faith and in spiritual leadership. Pastor Brian was one of the first people trained to lead this course and is inviting you to join him on this journey beginning in January 2027. It will take place the 1st and 3rd Thursday’s of the month at 6:00 pm via Zoom and will run for eight (8) sessions. There is no cost for the class itself, but participants will need to purchase three books. This course is open to anyone interested in developing their discipleship and participating in the growth of God’s kingdom. Please contact Pastor Brian for more details and to register. Class size will be limited to 15, but additional opportunities for the study will be available in the future if interest is shown. 

Bethany UMC will have their church charge conference on Saturday, November 7, 2026 at 11:30 am, held at St. Andrew’s UMC.
