Mobile Mission - Bethesda Mission's street ministry is called "Mobile Mission." Our church team will follow the Bethesda van and make 2 stops at designated locations in Harrisburg city (where this organization has been stopping for years). The team will serve food and clothing to the people who are homeless. Our church has partnered with this ministry for many years. As you can read on the website description, I can also testify that for volunteers it is often one of the most "transformative experiences of their lives." This opportunity is only open to HS age and older. Meet in the church parking lot @ 5:30pm. Spots are limited! Please contact Jenny Greene ( ) to signup.
Breathing Room - A night to rest in God’s presence and breathe in Christ’s love. There’ll be live worship music with a few stations for prayer and reflection. It was a new favorite last year, so we’re bringing it back!
Zeteo Retreat - A youth conference designed for students and leaders to draw closer and search deeper for Jesus. Through 4 sessions of worship music, engaging teaching, a weekend-long drama, creative arts, and challenging small group discussion times, Zeteo is designed to help students encounter God. Don’t miss this highlight event of the year! Everyone loves Zeteo. Because it’s more than another retreat…signup and details here.
Cross-Gen Meal Share - Cross-Gen stands for “Cross-Generational” ministry. It’s intentional intergenerational time together for building relationships and faith formation. On this night, each small group will visit with members of our church over a meal.
Lock-In - An annual favorite! Games, food, karaoke, an off-campus surprise field trip. Signup and details to come!
NYC Mission Trip - Signup and details here.
Impact Retreat - Do you wish you didn’t have to wait a full year for Zeteo? Our annual camping retreat is a great mix of outdoor fun with everything we love about Zeteo. Signup and details here.
