Dinner worship resumes next Sunday, November 13th. If you are willing to prepare dinner, set the table together, or for more details, please visit bfvumc.org/dinner.

2. HANGING OF THE GREENS & CHILI CHALLENGE DINNER WORSHIP
Save The Date! Does your chili have what it takes to tingle the taste buds of Bethany members and win you the coveted honor of Bethany’s Best Chili? There is only one way to find out. Make a big old pot and bring it to the Hanging of the Greens on Sunday, November 20. After decking the halls from 4 to 5, everyone will set down the garland and pick up their spoons at 5 p.m. to decide who will be declared this year's chili champion. There will be hotdogs, chips, and desserts as well as lots of chili so make plans to attend. Sign up in the narthex if you are bringing a pot of chili or simply plan to attend as a chili connoisseur so we are sure to have enough spoons and bowls for all.
