You can volun- teer to help any of the next Saturdays (either morning, afternoon, or both). Plan ahead, because we need to let Habitat know who will be helping and when. There is a sign- up sheet on the bulletin board at Bethany, or you can let Alice Jane know (918-299-0699; email: [email protected]) when you can help. She needs to call Habitat each Mon- day with our helpers' names for that week. That will give enough time to line up additional workers if they are needed. We are building at 4021 W. 54th Street in west Tulsa. It's a good idea to share rides, because park- ing is at a premium. Work begins each Saturday at 8 a.m. There is a snack break at mid-morning and lunch is provided at noon. If the weather is not co- operating (as it did this week) call 918-280-7125 to see if construction will continue on that particular Saturday. (see map at http://mapq.st/16oLySD) Choosing a Monastic Have you ever wondered why a person would choose to be a monk? Our Bible Study class that meets at 9:30 a.m. each Sunday will delve into when and why serious Christians began to separate themselves from the world and live in mon- asteries. Our DVD teacher, Dr. Luke Timothy John- son, is helping us follow the Christian move- ment that began with small bands of believ- ers in Jerusalem who then added to their number until they became the state religion of Rome and eventually have changed the history of the world. It truly is a fas- cinating story. We would be happy to have you join us. Coffee is served at 9:15 a.m.

Walls Go Up First--
But Not This Week
While the rain this week has been a blessing, in
many ways it has delayed the start of our Habitat
house by a week. The construction site is too
muddy, so now the serious work of building a new
Habitat home will begin next Saturday (April 13) at
8:00 a.m.
Four Bethany
members will be
helping launch
the exciting ven-
ture: Steve Fate,
Bettye Jackson,
and Alice Jane
and Don Lanier.
You can volun-
teer to help any
of the next Saturdays (either morning, afternoon, or
both).
Plan ahead, because we need to let Habitat
know who will be helping and when. There is a sign-
(free shuttle rides available from Temple Israel, 2004 E. 22nd Place)
Featuring:
Kurt and Margaret Goldberger, child survivors of the Kindertransports
From Dec. 1 1938 to the start of WWII nearly 10,000 Jewish children were sent, with-out their parents, to safety in Great Britain. While more than 1.5 million children per-ished in the Holocaust, these children were saved by the Kindertransport rescue movement. Kurt and Margaret Goldberger will share their personal stories of the Kindertransports.

at 918-495-1100.
The Unity Concert on April 20 is the
launch of this initiative, showcasing
Oklahoma musicians of all ages and
genres who will share their music and
their love of community with Tulsans,
in the beautiful setting of Guthrie
Green, a gathering place with a simi-
lar vision.
The free concert runs from 2 to 8 p.m.
Also included will be: children’s activi-
ties; information booths from area
non-profits; food; beverages; a silent
auction and much more.
Faith Life Connections is an ongoing lecture/conversation series offering a forum for participants to
explore faith values in daily life. Held on a Saturday, beginning at 9:00 a.m., presentations will in-
clude a local panel. Together with the speaker, the panel will respond and share perspectives in-
viting conversations with all attendees. Throughout the day resources will be provided for those in-
terested in teaching or leading study groups. Each program will conclude at 3:00 p.m.
The program welcomes ecumenical and multi-faith participants.
