Unveiled Women's Conference
Friday & Saturday, April 4th - 5th
Schedule TBD
With special guests Pastor Kami Zumwalt and Pastor Georgia Batts!
Our theme for this conference is “Her Roots Go Deep” based on Colossians 2:7. Our focus is to help women understand how treasured and seen they are by God and know how important they are to the body of Christ. We also want to talk about the importance of supporting each other by not tolerating comparison, envy, jealousy, and competition among us. We understand the only way women can grow in these areas is through their roots being deep in the foundation of Jesus. -

Audio Volunteer Training
Professional sound engineer and head of Bethesda’s audio department Tyson Kingrey will be hosting an intensive live mixing training for audio volunteers Thursday, November 21st from 5:30-7:30pm!
Right now, Bethesda has a huge need for skilled volunteers to help run sound for our midweek worship services (Wednesday nights for the Pouring, and Friday nights for Jesus People Young Adults).
Sound is a huge part of our mission here at Bethesda— if speech isn’t clear and intelligible, the gospel cannot be preached or heard; if instruments aren’t properly balanced, then congregants can be distracted from worshipping or even potentially suffer hearing damage. “Audio volunteer” isn’t merely a filler position. To mix a worship service in excellence is to help facilitate encounters with Jesus Christ!
If you have experience and passion in this area, or if you’re a beginner who is technologically savvy, teachable, and has a good ear, then register today! We look forward to equipping you!
