COLLEGE

College Ministry  - Dan and Paula Altman, Directors
Bethel UMC is fortunate to be near both The College of Charleston and The Citadel as well as other colleges in the city and welcomes all students to both Bethel activities and the Wesley Foundation.
 
The College Sunday School class is taught by Dan Altman and meets upstairs in The Education Building each Sunday from 10-11AM (with a light breakfast foods)! Spiritual studies have included "Serious Answers to Hard Questions," "The Purpose Driven Life," The Gospel of Mark, Acts of the Apostles, and Revelations. The current Bible study is "How to Stay a Christian in College."

The group has participated in mission projects such as
  • Operation Christmas Child
  • Habitat for Humanity
  • Dominican Republic Medical Mission Trip
Social gatherings include cook-outs, the annual church-wide picnic, and the monthly "Lunch, Our Treat," when Bethel treats the group to lunch after the 11:15 worship service. These are great opportunities for Christian fellowship.

What's Happening Now!
    
SUNDAY SCHOOL
Welcome to Bethel’s College Sunday School Class. We continue to meet on Sundays in the Education Building at 9 a.m. to share in a light breakfast to accompany our lesson time. Lessons are typically in a devotional format.
 
Our study focus during the month of January has been on “Righteousness.” My study Bible has close to 300 references to this important Biblical concept. One of the theologians that we have studied notes that “the ancient Greek meaning was tendency, the use of this word in the Bible implies justice and conformance to established standards. Justice means doing the right thing; and conformance to established standards (in the Bible) refers to following the ways of God.” During our study, we have looked at God’s guidance on how a college student can continue to grow towards a more righteous life, even while living in a campus environment.
During the month of February, the College Sunday School class will use the same study approach for the word, “Love.” We want to invite to join in our class discussions when you are home. If you prefer, we can email the lesson each week. Just let us know.
