Between April 30 and May 28, Bethel Pentecostal Church in Kaladar is hosting special events both in their Sunday morning and evening services. The month long event begins with Jews for Jesus doing a ‘Christ in the Passover’ service at 10:30 a.m. This 45 minute presentation will re-enact the Passover meal explaining the significance of it to Christians. The evening of April 30 will feature John Reid and Eagle Band in concert at 6:30 p.m. John has recently returned from a missions trip to Egypt . Pastor Vernon Scott will be doing bass guitar that evening.

May begins with Pastor Tom and Anne Kernohan returning to Bethel for the 10:30 service. In 2003, Bethel Pentecostal Church , Kaladar and Northbrook Pentecostal Church in Northbrook joined together to form one regional ministry centre, with a vision to effectively minister to our whole area. Tom and Anne were one of the last pastors to serve the Northbrook assembly. Since leaving our area, they have started a new church in Lakefield. On Sunday, May 7 at 6:30 p.m. they will be joined by their music team from Lakefield. Bethel has supported this new church financially and with prayer since its inception.

At the evening service they will be joined by a music team from their present church, Evangel Pentecostal Church in Kingston .
