Ladies Auxiliary


What is The Ladies Auxiliary?

The Ladies Auxiliary was founded in 1974 at the request of the Bethany Bible College Board of Trustees. The organization's purpose has been to support Bethany financially, in prayer, student recruitment and in special projects, as well as to promote our school to our community and churches, through our membership. We are wives, mothers, grandmothers and professionals. We are Christian women who choose to make a difference.

Throughout the years the Ladies Auxiliary has provided a home touch for our students through improvement projects of the dorms and lounges. We financed campus improvement projects, such as the breezeway between the Chapel and the Fireside room. During "Dead Week" while students prepare for final exams, we've provided "Survival kits" of fruit, snacks and candy, accompanied by encouraging notes. Lastly, but definitely not least, we have awarded significant scholarships annually, to deserving young women.

Each member's small donations of time and money are pooled into significant contributions to the work of God at Bethany. Bethany University's mission is to provide Biblically centered education anchored in our Pentecostal doctrine, in order to train excellent leaders for the church and society.

We pray that you will consider joining us, whether as individuals, or as a group. We would appreciate greatly your support in any way God leads you:

  • Praying for us and our students,
  • announcing our events in your services,
  • adding Bethany University to your Home Missions list or
  • any donation you could make towards our scholarships.

We look forward to your fellowship at our spring or fall lunch event. May God bless your church and ministry.

In the Lord's Service on behalf of the Bethany students and community,

Olympia Rossi,
Bethany University
Ladies Auxiliary President
