Bethany Christian School honored area pastors with a Pastor Appreciation Breakfast and Chapel on Thursday, October 6. Over forty pastors attended representing about twenty-five different churches from as close as our own Sierra Madre to as far as Thousand Oaks and even San Diego. Churches represented included: Redeemed Life Church, The Chapel Pasadena, Bethany Church Sierra Madre, Vintage Church, The Church We Hope For, Chinese Christian Family Church, Davar Church, Christian Assembly, Interwoven Church. Fellowship Monrovia, CrossLife Community Church, Christ Church Sierra Madre, Epicentre Church, First Presbyterian Church Monrovia, Calvary Chapel Monrovia, Pasadena Nazarene Church, Prince of Peace Thousand Oaks, Osborne Neighborhood Church, Mercy Town. The pastors were treated to a hot breakfast with plenty of time for discussion and mutual encouragement. The pastors then attended a special Pastor Appreciation Chapel dedicated to honoring them and their ministry to our communities. The pastors had a chance to introduce themselves to the student body and the Bethany students and teachers prayed for them. Following this, each pastor paired up with and prayed for the Bethany students who attend their church. The event concluded with the Bethany Lions Choir singing special music. This event took place in October which is Pastor Appreciation Month.
