Purpose:
To bridge the generational and social gap by presenting a
traditional German Advent Celebration at Bethel Park. It has
long been a goal of the German District leadership to bring
our community this type of event.
160
+ people came to Bethel Park to participate in the German
Advent Celebration. It was very evident and most wonderful
to observe the joy and happiness this event generated. Smiling
faces were every where to be seen and laughter every where
to be heard.

are already planning this event for next year, make
