NEW TO THE COMMUNITY
This group meets Wednesday evenings & Fridays at Noon at Bethany September to June.
The Ecology Action Centre is a member-based environmental charity in Nova Scotia.
Since 1971, we've taken leadership on critical environmental issues from biodiversity protection to climate change to environmental justice.
Capella Regalis is a local charitable organization providing free music programs to children across the HRM.
There are two main choirs: the Girls Choir (starting at age 7) and the Men & Boys Choir (starting at age 6). Capella Regalis holds rolling auditions throughout the year, and is currently welcoming new choristers for the spring and fall terms - no prior experience necessary!
Anyone interested is encouraged to visit their website, https://capellaregalis.com, for more information, and to book a quick and friendly audition.
Bethany United Church plays host to a variety of these programs.
Bethany Art Group is actively seeking new members!
For over 25 years, Bethany has hosted a painting group in the ladies parlor on Tuesday mornings. There are openings for a few new members. The group is presently all retired ladies, painting in different media, independently. It is also a social group - we chat and sometimes share snacks. Skill level is not important, but you must bring your own equipment and supplies. No one is teaching. We do give each other support and suggestions when asked. There is a small cost to share the rental fees. You are welcome to come visit and try us out! Please contact the treasurer, Yvonne Macor 902-431-0111 or meditate.ns@gmail.com for further information.
Welcome Group…. Tuesday and Saturday Evenings
The Welcome Group is an “open” meeting and available to anyone interested in the Alcoholics Anonymous' program of recovery from alcoholism.
On site meetings are normally held at 7PM, Bethany United CHurch, 2669 Joseph Howe Drive (Ramp Entrance). you can go as often as you wish to both meetings.
There are no intrusive questions or obligations and you can retain anonymity. It is also open to everyone regardless of race, religion or beliefs. Welcome is a diverse group of younger and older men and women from diverse backgrounds who are always willing to help the “newcomer” feel at ease.
An AA Group has one primary purpose: to help members stay sober and, in turn, to help others who may need help in achieving sobriety. Participants are able to relate and share their experiences, strength, and hopes with each other in order to solve their common problem and help others recover from alcoholism. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking.
