WORSHIP NOTES

Preaching today is Rob Stewart, the executive Director of New Horizons Ministries, an organization serving homeless youth in Seattle. He has worked in homeless services for 15 years, in areas focused on housing, early education, and anti-poverty advocacy. Rob has a 2-year-old daughter and a wife who is better than him in every imaginable way. New Horizons is consistently blessed by the love, support and advocacy of Bethany Presbyterian Church!

Leading worship today is Adele Drummund. Recently installed as Worship Elder, Adele is looking forward to the day we can worship together again in the Sanctuary. Staying at home the last 4 months has improved the appearance of her flowerbeds, and she has enjoyed completing a number of fiber arts projects. She and her husband, Fred, have been members of Bethany’s congregation since 2006.
