Bethel UMC Preschool

Bethel UMC Preschool We have classes for Babies thru K-4. Bethel is the "hidden gem" of Forest Acres. We are located in a neighborhood right off of Trenholm Rd and Forest Drive.

We are a small Preschool with a Family atmosphere. We now have a staff of eight employees and offer care to children 6 weeks of age through 4 year old Pre-K. We offer classes 1 day -5 days a week for our nursery and toddlers and 3 or 5 days for our 2 year old through 4 year old. We wish to help children bridge the gap between normal dependency upon family, and the necessary independence a child must have upon entering kindergarten

It’s finally here - Bethel Preschool’s Spring Program!! Followed by Graduation for another amazing class of very Kindergarten ready friends 🥹

We started with a program warm up with Ms Elizabeth…..a quick shot of some very anxious graduates, and then, places everyone!!

Our Ms Burger a quick moment to honor Mrs Elizabeth Beaudette - Bethel’s nursery staple for years, on her retirement

And then just like that, our year is done

Congratulations to Bethel Preschool Class of 2026!

Happy Chapel Wednesday - and sadly,
the last Chapel for our school year. So of course we’ve just got to finish up our Faith Salad!

Pastor Mason began by reviewing all the pieces we had already tossed in and our friends did an incredible job helping remind us exactly what each ingredient stood for -

Our bowl reminds that Jesus holds us up

The lettuce reminds us that Jesus is good for us

Veggies remind us that God made a beautiful and colorful world

Croutons remind us that God is the bread
of life

This week we need to finish our salad up with dressing - the dressing brings us all together. Pastor Mason gave us each a “drop” of dressing. We took turns adding our dressing to the salad bowl, while thanking God for the special people in our lives

The dressing helps remind us that Jesus helps us get along - Happy Summer All!

Happy Chapel Wednesday! Pastor Mason was back and had us working on our “Faith Salad” - so far, we have the bowl which reminds us that Jesus holds us up. Then we have our lettuce to remind us that Jesus is good for us and our beautiful veggies to remind us that God made a colorful world.

Whatever will we add today?

Pastor Mason asked if we remembered, when we were “on our wilderness journey”, talking about the water bottle in our backpack? It was there to remind us that Jesus told us He is the living water. He also told us that He is the”bread of life” - so today, we added “croutons” to our salad to remind us the Jesus is the bread of life. Pastor Mason gave us each a “crouton” to add to our Faith Salad, and, just this once, we got to add our croutons all at once.

Our salad is looking very good ☺️

Ready for another great week ☺️
