Greetings from Bethlehem House

Bethlehem House Ministries

BETHLEHEM HOUSE IS...

a Charitable Non-Profit Organization registered in the State of Pennsylvania affiliated with St. Miriam Parish & Friary and the Ecumenical Order of Charity


♥


...a space where bread is broken, companionship is celebrated, gratitude and kindness are embraced, and the love and mercy of God are shared with ALL!

WHAT IS BETHLEHEM HOUSE MINISTRIES ALL ABOUT?

Breaking the Bread of Love with Others

The word "Bethlehem" in Hebrew means 'House of Bread.'


Breaking the Bread of Food, Hope, Friendship, Faith and Love is what our mission is all about.


Our Ministries are rooted in the Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy, 

(see Matthew 25:35-36),

while grounded in the Christian Sacramental and Mystical Tradition.

The word "Bethlehem" in Hebrew means 'House of Bread.'


Breaking the Bread of Food, Hope, Friendship, Faith and Love is what our mission is all about.


Our Ministries are rooted in the Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy, 

(see Matthew 25:35-36),

while grounded in the Christian Sacramental and Mystical Tradition.


As part of the Ministry Outreach with St. Miriam's Church and the Ecumenical Order of Charity, and thanks to generous donations from our benefactors, we have been able to offer emotional, material and spiritual support to many who are hungry & needy in our midst for several years now.


Over the past several months, our ministry has provided assistance with food, medical, housing and other living expenses to folks in our local area who have found themselves struggling during these most difficult and trying times. We have been able to assist families with having groceries delivered to their homes, we helped a family with a mortgage payment, we made it possible for one individual, who had no health insurance, keep an appointment with their medical specialist and we assisted another individual with procuring a phone to keep them connected to their loved ones! This past Thanksgiving holiday, Bethlehem House Ministries was able to warm the homes of 7 families with turkeys and all the fixings.


Our "It Takes a Village to Raise a Child" Project also provides food, shelter, clothing, medicine, emergency funds, education as well as other services and opportunities to young people in Africa that we have sponsored, "adopted," and have taken under our wings since 2019. 

 

The work we do also includes, but is not limited to, celebrating Eucharist in people's homes or via Zoom, anointing the sick, blessing homes, officiating at weddings, performing baptisms, providing spiritual guidance and prayerful support, along with breaking the bread of food and fellowship around our table at Bethlehem House.


We so love what we do, and we hope to continue to touch and profoundly impact the lives of our needy brothers and sisters, both locally and abroad, in a positive and significant way for many more years to come. We look to you to help us help them! 


We sincerely thank the generous individuals who from time to time have become members of our "village" supporting our work and mission. Without such support we would not be able to do all that we have done. We continue to be in need of such generosity as we carry on the task of breaking 'bread,' celebrating friendship, embracing gratitude & kindness and sharing the love and mercy of God with ALL!

This Sunday introduces us to two strikingly different figures — John the Baptist and Jesus — whose lives reveal a sacred balance every follower of Christ is invited to hold.

John stands in the wilderness with fire in his voice — calling for repentance, truth, accountability, and the courage to start again. He’s the disruptor who refuses to let us settle for spiritual autopilot.

Jesus steps forward with mercy in His touch — healing, welcoming, lifting up, and reminding us that repentance is never about shame, but transformation rooted in love. He is the reconciler who sees possibility where others only see failure.

Together, they show us that the spiritual life is both challenge and compassion — speaking truth boldly and offering grace freely; naming the brokenness and nurturing the healing; dismantling what harms and building what restores.

To follow Christ fully is to carry John’s urgency and Jesus’ tenderness — to be courageous enough to change and loving enough to walk with others as they do the same.

If Today You Hear His Voice Harden Not Your Hearts!
