LANSDALE Founded in 1770, Bethel Hill United Methodist Church, the stateâs second oldest Methodist church, may be 250 years old. But it can still find new ways to serve in mission, especially when a viral pandemic demands adaptability.
Mission-minded members enjoy taking trips each year to work on building projects that help others. But while the pandemic has prevented that experience, church members found a new way to help build a home for distant neighbors by doing it in the churchâs parking lot.
The church s Servants At Work youth and adult mission team collaborated with Help Build Hope, a program of CrossRoads Missions, in Louisville, KY, to construct a frame and interior walls of a new home to be donated to a needy, deserving family in the Lehigh Valley.
