THANK GOD FOR HIS WONDROUS BLESSINGS

It is right that we should give thanks to God for His many and wondrous blessings on Bethany! We cannot but note that it has been 48 years of blessings bestowed on us!

Yes, He loves the people;

All His saints are in Your hand;

They sit down at Your feet;

Everyone receives Your words.

Moses commanded a law for us,

A heritage of the congregation of Jacob.

And He was King in Jeshurun,

When the leaders of the people were gathered,

All the tribes of Israel together.     Deuteronomy 33:3-5
