Together for Joy

  • Bethel Congregational United Church of Christ 5150 SW Watson Ave Beaverton, OR, 97005 (map)

Join Bethel Congregational UCC for a special Stewardship worship series – Together for Joy.

Psalm 98 tells us to “Sing to God a new song, for God has done marvelous things. Let the floods clap their hands; let the hills sing together for joy.” Staying together through the delights and struggles of life - being “together for joy” - has never been more important. And while change brings financial challenges in its wake, it also brings fresh opportunities to sing to God a new song, for God has done - and will do - marvelous things.

We begin the series remembering the difficulties we have faced over the past couple of years, both globally and locally: the losses, grief, uncertainty, and anxiety. The Bible is filled with examples of how the people of God repeatedly faced difficult, harrowing times - imagine the heartbreak and disorientation, the grief and the doubt, the suffering and loneliness. And yet, God’s Spirit never left them; God guided them and gave comfort in the midst of difficulty and hope in the midst of despair.
