how will the sabbatical
​be funded?

A rest and renewal experience for Pastor Squires and Bethel

Bethel entered into planning for Pastor's Sabbatical with the commitment to continue paying his salary and benefits during the 3 months of renewal leave. The additional costs for the Sabbatical are outside of the congregation's budget. 

Fully Funded
With many thanks to God, Bethel raised the $25,000 needed for the Sabbatical. This includes $15,000 for our interim pastor and congregational experiences, and $10,000 to cover Pastor Squires' traveling and other aspects of his renewal.
