We are horrified by the events of gun violence across our nation, culminating most recently in the violent deaths of 19 fourth graders and two of their teachers in Uvalde, Texas on May 24.

Our faith in the God of justice and mercy demands that we take action.  Those who are able will be marching with others across the nation as we call for meaningful change, in Burlingame on Saturday, June 11.  Click here for further details.

Beginning of Summer Luncheon

Kent Sicklebower 1950-2022

Friends, it is with great sadness that we give thanks for the life of Kent Sicklebower, pictured here with his father the late Russ Sicklebower.

Kent passed away on Thursday, May 19, at the age of 72. He surely lived a long, full life under the loving care of his parents and sister. We offer prayers of condolence for Kent's family and friends - especially to his sister Robin and her family.

Movie Night

Friday, September 16  7:00 p.m.

Marching for their lives.  AGAIN.

Another movie night? Yay!  We'll be watching “War Games” (1983, PG) – “A young computer whiz kid (Matthew Broderick) accidentally connects into a top secret super-computer which has complete control over the U.S. nuclear arsenal. It challenges him to a game between America and Russia, and he innocently starts the countdown to World War 3. Can he convince the computer he wanted to play a game and not the real thing?” - Colin Tinto

In the end, this is really an ANTI-war movie! (FYI we do use the closed captions, so if you’re hearing impaired, you can still enjoy the movie!)  BYO movie snacks and drinks!

Saturday, June 11, at 10:00

Several Bethany members took part in the March For Our Lives - a peaceful protest march that was held across the US - in neighboring Burlingame.  

We were especially impressed and proud of the young people who spoke - they were articulate and full of passion. If those are our future leaders, we will be in good hands!
