PROJECT HELP

INDIGENT CARE
At Bethel we also care for the elderly. Once per month they are given a stipend and periodically they are supplied with groceries.

GOLDEN AGE HOME
In the 1970's Bethel adopted Cluster A at the Golden Age Home. Our pastor also serves on the Board of the Home. Activities carried out here include:

• Soup each Saturday
• Trimming of men's hair and combing of ladies hair
• Providing transportation for some to attend church services

SHUT IN
On a weekly basis members of the church visit the shut ins who live within the church environs such as Franklyn Town and assist them in whatever way necessary.

BETHEL UNITED TRAINING INSTITUTE
This institute was established to provide training for the youth in various skills to make them marketable in order for them to fend for themselves. The idea comes from the need of young adults in the low income communities of Allman Town, Southside, Rollington Town, Vineyard Town and Franklyn Town, through a sample survey of young adults who expressed a desire for skills training.

Approximately 300 young adults will be marketable per year. Industries including hotels and restaurants will have a pool of trained personnel from which to select when they have to employ workers.

Objectives:

• To offer skills training to young adults who have no skill.
• To take training into the community so that the trainees can participate without having to commute.
• To offer skills which allow for some degree of independence when the trainees graduate.
• To cater to the needs of industries which are in proximity to the Training Institute.
• To give hope and change attitudes of young people who currently are unemployable.
• Skills upgrading and certification.

On November 2, 1998, a 48-week Garment Construction course, sponsored by H.E.A.R.T. commenced with 12 students. Future plans include the operation of a Day Care Center from this facility.

We kindly solicit your assistance or donations in propagating the will of Christ in our communities.
