Dear Bethany Bible Church,
With the fall season in full swing, I am so excited with all that
the Lord is doing in our midst! We will have, in less than a
month, the start of Adventure Club and a third church worship
service on the Book of Psalms on Wednesday nights; and a
spate of new or continuing adult Equipping Hour studies on
Sunday mornings. From studies on the cults, Exploring
Christianity, Fundamentals of the Faith, and ongoing Biblical
Counseling Training, there are opportunities for everyone to
mature in Christ. Men’s and women’s ongoing studies are in
full force too!
I am shortly to embark upon an exposition of 1 and 2
Thessalonians, and I can’t wait to preach the Word of God to
hungry souls who desire to feed on the truths of Scripture!
Additionally, Pastor Chris will begin his exposition of the Book
of Acts on Sunday evenings in the worship service and you’ll
want to be here faithfully for this as well as our church’s
corporate prayer time.
Would you take a moment to pray for these aforementioned
ministries, both new and ongoing? Ask the Lord to bless the
new ministries which have begun, and intercede for all of your
fellow church members who are involved in these and other
ongoing ministry opportunities, seeking the Lord’s blessing and
fruitfulness for our entire body. May God the Father grant
eternal riches in Christ Jesus for how the Holy Spirit is shaping
Bethany Bible Church.

Special Guest Preacher
Jacob Matchak
September 15
10:30 am Jacob Matchak will
lead us in morning
worship, share his
ministry, and preach.
Jacob Matchak has
worked in the California
Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation – Division
of Juvenile Justice (CDCR-DJJ) for the past 17 years.
As a pastor, Jacob is employed full-time as a State
Chaplain at the Ventura Youth Correctional Facility in
Camarillo, CA which houses a population of 200 youthful
offenders in state custody. Jacob’s pastoral approach to
correctional chaplaincy has allowed him to build
meaningful relationships with both youth and
correctional staff and to establish a thriving chapel
program that partners with churches, para-church
organizations, Christian colleges and universities, and
seminaries from all over the Southern California region.
One of the highlights of Jacob’s chaplaincy is seeing the
outside church connect with the youth on the inside that
are seeking to know God and have a genuine walk of
faith with Him. Jacob has had the privilege of seeing the
lives of many youthful offenders be transformed by the
power of the Gospel as they receive new hope in Christ
Jesus for the future.
Jacob Matchak, his wife, Dena, and their two children
reside in Camarillo where they attend Pleasant Valley
Bible Church.
FROM THE MISSIONS TEAM:
Friendship Class is held every other Monday at The Bridge Church in Newbury Park. Volunteer mentors from several churches in the area assist and share with their assigned “friend” at each meeting. What a great mission opportunity to share the Gospel with the disabled community!
Faithful mentors are needed! Contact Joel or Jody Tiefel for more information.

FROM THE MISSIONS TEAM: NEW MISSIONARIES
Welcome Michael and Amy Walsh….
Our Family
Thank you for this opportunity to introduce our family to
you. We are Michael & Amy Walsh and we have been
serving the Lord for the last 30 years in the Republic of
Ireland. Amy and I met at Moody Bible Institute in 1985
and the Lord united us in marriage and ministry in 1987.
The Lord has blessed us with four children, a daughter-in
-law, Rachael, and our grandson, Tyler Joseph, 18
months old.
Our Ministry
Amy and I have been in a church planting ministry in the
center of Ireland. I have been serving as pastor of Grace
Community Church in Roscommon. Fourteen years ago,
we moved to Roscommon where there was no Bible-
teaching church in the town. Last year we had the joy of
seeing a sister church planted called Hope Community
Church in the town of Longford, about 30 minutes from
our location. This year a church is being planted in the
town of Boyle which is an hour away in another direction. Our vision is to see God-centered, biblically-
saturated, doctrinally-grounded, churches established in the cities and towns of Ireland that do not yet have
a Gospel witness. Since less than 1% of the Irish people are Believers, we have an open door to see the
Gospel take root and bear fruit!
Our Partnership
We are so blessed to be able to partner with Bethany Bible Church. We hope to keep you informed about
the Lord’s work in Ireland. There may also be opportunities to share resources and personnel in the form
of mission trips and conferences. It’s exciting for us to think of how two like-minded churches can work
together to see the Gospel advance around the globe!
Please feel free to write to us with any questions you
might have about our family or the Lord’s work in
Ireland. E-mail: [email protected]
Michael & Amy Walsh (Heather, Brendan & Rachael, Hannah, Caleb)
Grace Community Church of Roscommon
The Missions Team warmly invites you to visit our monthly meeting! We meet once
monthly following the Sunday morning service. In September, we’ll meet at
Ameci’s Pizza in Thousand Oaks following the Sunday morning service on
September 15. The October meeting date will be announced soon. Watch for
updates in the Sunday bulletin and church calendar.

FROM THE MISSIONS TEAM:
How can you serve your local community and children
around the world with a gospel-centered mercy ministry?
Bethany Bible Church along with Bethany Christian School
will help bring life-saving food and aid to people facing
extreme poverty.
On September 15, pick up an empty Food Pak box and a
shopping list. Then, pack the box with non-perishable food
and include a $5 donation to cover the cost of transportation.
Please make checks payable to Children’s Hunger Fund
(CHF). Return the box to Bethany by September 29. CHF will
pick up the boxes from our campus and distribute them to
needy families through churches in their region. Each Food
Pak provides an opportunity to build relationships and deliver
the life-giving hope of the gospel.
It’s more than a box of food, it’s an opportunity for Hope to be delivered to families in crisis.
Let’s deliver Hope together!

Our current study is 50 Core
Truths of the Christian Faith.
Author Gregg Allison unpacks
fifty key doctrines of the
Christian faith in a clear,
engaging way and provides
guidance for how to accurately
teach them. He also explains
how each doctrine connects to
daily life, because he believes
that Christian doctrine is not only true belief but also true
practice. Contact Joel Tiefel for more information about
this study: (805) 807-0612.

Exploring Christianity
8
With Titus 2:3-5 as our guide, our desire is to equip women to pass on the legacy of biblical womanhood to the next generation.
This is God’s good and beautiful plan, the biblical model of older women living out the gospel and training younger women to do the same, of younger women recognizing the value of older women in their lives—of women adorning the gospel together. Living our lives as Titus 2 women enables us to fulfill the purpose for which we were created. It helps our families and churches to flourish and the beauty of the gospel
to shine forth in our world. This is Christian community as God designed it.
Join us as we look to God’s Word for His perspective on the character, commitments, and attitudes of godly women—and His prescribed process for helping us live out these virtues not only today, but from generation to generation.
Using Nancy D. Wolgemuth’s book, Adorned, the Women's Titus 2 Discipleship Group will meet on the fourth Tuesday of the month at 6:45 pm. Upcoming meeting dates: September 24 and October 22.

Beginning with Genesis 12, walk alongside the fathers of our faith—Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph—to discern Jesus in the stories of His people.
Over 10 sessions, discover how God orchestrates everything for His glory and the good of His people, and see how the God of creation and covenant is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

CHILDREN’S MINISTRY
Kids, come to the Worship Center with your parents where you will be dismissed to Sunday School classes following the first two songs. Sunday School teachers will escort children to classes.
ROOM 101: PRESCHOOL & KINDERGARTEN Our preschool and kindergarten program encourages classroom participation while learning Biblical truths. Each activity is prepared with the Bible lesson in mind to help our preschoolers remember what they have learned. A healthy snack is provided.
ROOM 110: FIRST THROUGH FIFTH GRADES Our elementary curriculum is Generations of Grace. Children learn from the same passage of Scripture in a way that is appropriate for their age levels. Families are encouraged to discuss one passage together weekly to reinforce the Sunday School lesson the children learned. A healthy snack is provided.
Active listening guides are available at the Information Kiosk for children who remain in the Worship Center for service.
The Sunday service is simulcast in the Nursery Lobby but will soon be moved to room 205. Parents with young children are encouraged to use the viewing area near the nursery.
Sunday childcare for infants and toddlers
available at 9:00 am, 10:30 am and 6:00 pm.
Babies [Infants—Crawlers] Our nursery is equipped with cribs and swings as well as exciting toys to engage curious minds.
Toddlers [Walkers—3 Years] We welcome our toddlers with free play to ease the transition into the classroom. Our curriculum aims to train young children how to sit during a brief Bible story and participate in songs that teach biblical truths.
Cry Room / Training Area Located in our nursery lobby, we have live-streaming of the sermon and comfortable seating for any parent wishing to keep their little one with them during church.
FAMILY HOUR
The FAMILY HOUR ministry intentionally works together as families—helping one another grow and disciple our children in preparation for the next generation of Christ followers.
1) Fellowship among the families (parents and their children).
The weekly meeting encourages discipleship and accountability among families. We learn from one another; whether it is parent-to-parent or parent-to-other children and vice versa.
2) Teach the children about God, His word, and how to apply biblical truths in our daily lives.
Parents learn together with their children and reinforce at home what was taught on Sunday. Therefore, families can connect with each other about what they are learning from God during the week and on Sundays. Sharing God's word within the family is a key emphasis of FAMILY HOUR. Sometimes the topic involves parenting which may be new and targeted toward the parents.
3) Men learn to lead and disciple their families.
FAMILY HOUR is designed to be a model of worship, teaching, prayer, and discussion for fathers/parents to practice daily with their families at home.
Each week, fathers or young men take turns preparing and teaching the weekly lesson. The younger men are discipled by the older men so that the upcoming generation learns how to spiritually lead their family in the future. Parents also rotate leading Bible-related games and crafts.
Join us for fellowship, worship, Bible study, and family fun!

"For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the
saints have been refreshed through you," The Apostle Paul to Philemon - Philemon 1:7.
So many are faithfully interceding for Beth Quinn in prayer. Knowing the Father is being appealed to by His people on her behalf is an incredible encouragement to Beth's heart!
A Special Email Address
If you would like to write a note to Beth expressing your love for her, testifying of her devotion to the Savior that blesses all those around her, and for her ministry in your life and in the life of our church, we have a special email for this purpose: [email protected]
As she is able, Beth will read the emails and we trust God that her heart will be refreshed by the words of His people and the testimony of God's grace seen in her life and ministry.
Special Notes
Lance will continue providing updates about Beth's treatments and prayer requests via Facebook and the church website. Because many letters may be received, Beth may not be able to respond to each. Pray that every letter will be a fountain of joy to Beth and ultimately bring Jesus Christ worship and glory.
Beth is feeling stronger and is currently planning and preparing meals for her family. However, should the need arise for meals in the future, we’ll be sure to let you know! To help with medical expenses, please make your contributions at:
