Spring Has Sprung: So Let’s Get To work!
Mark your calendars for Saturday April 17th 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. We will be cleaning up our gardens and getting them ready for planting and we will continue our reforestation efforts that were started last fall. See details below:
Tree Planting
Black Cherry, Oaks, Redbud, Paw Paw, Persimmon... oh my!
Cleanup, planting, and making our garden and grounds beautiful.
Join us in a springtime project which will result in the planting and distribution of 475 bare root trees at Beulah Presbyterian Church. Beulah Presbyterian Church is committed to the revitalization of our Church landscape. This planting aims to help restore ecological function, beauty, and value to the site, allowing for connection in service to each other, the site, and the larger community.
Volunteers will be able to take a tree home to plant and commemorate the day.
Pre-Registration is Required. Please use this link to our Eventbrite registration.
By preregistering we can keep everyone safe and organized better. If you have any questions please email Alex Ruzanic at aruzanic@beulahpresby.org.
Rain/Overflow Work Date Scheduled for Sunday, April 18th
This project is a collaborative effort of Plant Five for Life, Beulah Presbyterian Church and Garfield Farm Open Door Church.

Nature Trail Cleaning This Weekend!
Join us this Saturday, April 10 from 10 AM to 2 PM (rain date April 11) to help take care of the waterway on the old Churchill Valley Country Club property. We are partnering with the Chalfant Run/Thompson Run Watershed Association (the creek that runs through the Churchill Valley Greenway) to clean up trash that has accumulated along the creek over the winter. The Watershed Association will also point people up into our nature trail woods behind Beulah to clean up the trash that has accumulated there along our proposed trail! What a great way to partner with our community. This is the first steps in blazing our trail. There is a lot of garbage behind the cemetery and behind the church in the woods to get rid of. Come, help out, and meet community members. There will also be a food truck in the Churchill Valley parking lot with some live entertainment. Contact Carolyn Leah at cleah@beulahpresby.org if you have any questions or plan to come. Bring work gloves and tick and insect repellant. Long sleeves, long pants and sturdy shoes or boots are recommended.

New Discipleship Classes this Sunday
Join us as we start two new adult class options beginning this Sunday on Zoom at 11 a.m. If you are coming to in person "Watch Parties" at Beulah on Sunday, we encourage you to use your tablet, phone, or laptop and the WIFI at the church in the sanctuary, fellowship hall, or the Fireside room to join us via Zoom. You will find the log in and access password at the Welcome Desk near the front entrance of the church.
Option 1: CASKET EMPTY: The Old Testament Completed
This class will take us through Kings, Exile, and the Temple period as we wrap up the CASKET part of this study.
Option 2: A Hopeful Earth: Faith, Science, and the Message of Jesus
We will be studying that living as good stewards of God's creation is a significant component of what it means to follow Jesus. We will also discover how the church can reach out to the younger generation by joining them in the race to save the planet.

“The Beloved Church” – Sermon Series on the Book of Philippians (4/18 – 5/23)
Of all the churches that receive Paul’s NT letters, the church in Philippi was clearly his most beloved. In this letter, he wrote about their mutual love and regard for one another and throughout the letter he referred to them as “beloved.”
Paul’s bond with the Christians in Philippi shows us how, as we work together in the proclamation for the sake of the gospel, our love grows for one another as brothers and sisters in Christ. Paul’s correspondence with this church was not just a duty he felt to a congregation that supported him. Neither did he write to them because there were serious problems to be corrected. He was writing because he loved them and he wanted to encourage them in their faith.
Philippians is a letter that brings encouragement as we go through hard times; it is a letter that urges us to be faithful in the proclamation of the gospel no matter what; it is a letter that teaches us to have joy in Christ. These are just a few of the things that I would like to say to my “beloved” Beulah Church, after our 12 ½ years together in ministry. Let’s celebrate them together during this 6-week series.
