Bethlehem First United Methodist to Host Annual Easter Egg Hunt this Weekend
The annual event on the church's front lawn will include games, storytelling, crafts, snacks, face painting and — of course — an Easter egg hunt.
Often referred to as the “Big White Church” around these parts, this weekend will be surrounded by a sea of pastel colored Easter eggs just begging to be “hunted”.
At 3:30 p.m. Saturday, April 7, the church plays host to its annual Easter egg hunt on the front lawn, complete with games, storytelling, crafts, snacks, face painting and — of course — an Easter egg hunt.
On Sunday, April 8, the church will hold a number of different Easter services, including:
