RACIAL JUSTICE INITIATIVE
MOVIE NIGHTS
For the past two years, Bethel's Racial Justice Initiative has hosted movie nights that engage with the challenging and urgent topic of racial justice. Join us on Zoom to watch the movie and afterwards for discussion.
SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS DAY CAMP
Every summer hundreds of kids, teens, volunteers, and church staff from South Minneapolis churches gather for a week-long South Minneapolis Day Camp on Bethel's grounds. Each year a theme is chosen and children sing, make music, do service projects, learn about Jesus, play, learn about social justice, garden, and do lots of art!
This year's theme is Building Beloved Community. As we sing, pray, and listen to stories from Scripture together, our kids will be grounded in the Spirit's work in building community. Camp is for children entering kindergarten through high school, with a separate middle and high school track and opportunities for high school leadership with the younger kids.
A note about being back in person for Day Camp and COVID: This year, we plan to do all large group singing and eating outside on Bethel's spacious grounds. We will ask for families to pack a lunch from home for each day of camp; snacks will be provided at camp. If we also do smaller group indoor activities, we will require masks for children. We will pay attention to updated public health guidance as day camp approaches and adjust our protocols accordingly.
If you've got little ones or kids or just want to volunteer and hang out with some beautiful souls, join us this summer! We hope to see you live and in person! Call the church office if you have questions.
