God's Word for Today
Good communication involves BOTH speaking AND listening. Many of us are good at speaking but not so good at listening! We must learn to listen well if we are to have healthy and solid relationships. More importantly, we must learn to listen to God. Often times, we don’t hear God because we’re too busy with our own laundry lists of what we want from Him. We must shut up and listen to God for a change!
What is Bethlehem House all About ?
Breaking the Bread of Love with Others
The word Bethlehem in Hebrew means
'House of Bread.'
Breaking the Bread of Food,
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.
Services Offered at Bethlehem House Ministries
Eucharist
Throughout the month we gather virtually on Sundays to carry out Christ's command at the Last Supper to "do this in memory of me." As Christians have done since the earliest centuries, we break open the Word as well as share in the bread and wine that is spiritual food for our journey.
Gathering in the domestic church of one's home for Eucharist is a special way to commemorate an important occasion such as a wedding anniversary, the anniversary of a loved one's passing or simply just sharing faith with the special people in your life.
"It Takes A Village To Raise A Child"
Our "It Takes A Village" Project helps provide food, shelter, clothing, medicine, education as well as other services and opportunities to young people in Africa that we have "adopted" and taken under our wings for several years now. The need is great and resources are few. Consider making a small monthly contribution to this most worthy and noble cause. Click on link below for more information.

"It would be impossible to talk about how far I've come without mentioning the influence of Brother Jeremiah, aka Fr. Jerry, and his reputable organization, Bethlehem House Ministries.
My name is Sonuga Muyis Abiodun, aka Abbey. I'm from Nigeria. Unfortunately, I didn't get to know my mom. At 7 years old I became an orphan cause I lost my dad! My grandmother and uncle were responsible for my upbringing. It was my uncle who instilled in me a deep respect and love for God. This faith in God is what has kept me hopeful and grounded over the years.
Even though I grew up with the loving care and support of my grandmother and my uncle, there was very little they could do to help me build a better future. I'm now 25 years of age. After secondary school, for 7 years, I was unable to go to the university because of a lack of finances. I was on the verge of giving up on schooling, but at the eleventh hour, in May of 2021, I met Brother Jeremiah and everything changed! He said "we will get you to the University, we will make that happen" and that word is still as fresh in my heart and mind as this morning. That word gave me hope and a second chance to succeed.
He took me off idleness and helped me get to school. After many months of schooling at the University of Agriculture in Nigeria, the University was shut down in February of 2022 over unpaid salaries and some other issues. I've been out of school since and it doesn't seem we're resuming anytime soon. It's an indefinite strike.
Brother Jeremiah and Bethlehem House Ministries have been very supportive of me over the last year taking care of school fees, housing on campus along with other expenses related to my educational pursuits. Thanks to a nation-wide strike of all public universities, my schooling is put on hold once again.
Despite this setback, I remain very hopeful as Brother Jeremiah and Bethlehem House Ministries have offered to sponsor me as I seek to obtain a student visa that would allow me to study in the United States where I can get a good and world-class education.
I humbly implore your assistance in making this dream come true.
I would greatly appreciate any financial support you can offer. Please be assured of my prayers for you and may God bless you!
Peace and Blessings,
Abbey"
UPDATE:
Abbey's first attempt at a VISA was denied by the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria. VISA's from Nigeria to the USA are not always the easiest to obtain. We see this as a minor setback but we will move forward in our efforts to make Abbey's dream come true.
Your support is needed and deeply appreciated!!!
