What is Joyful Times?

It is a social get-together for members of Bethlehem Church who are of AARP age or empty nesters. You don’t have to be retired to join in the social times, as some things are scheduled in the evening or on weekends. 

The Joyful Times group meets for a monthly planning meeting and fellowship time at 9:30 am on the second Wednesday of the month.
