About this Event
🌟 Bethlehem Dinner: No Room at the Inn 🌟
3rd Annual Bethlehem Dinner | December 6, 2026 | 4:00–6:00 PM
Step back in time to the bustling streets of Bethlehem, where travelers have gathered from near and far to be counted in Caesar’s census. The town is overflowing, the inns are full, and one very determined innkeeper is doing everything he can to make room for just one more guest.
Join Bentonville SDA Women’s Ministries for an immersive evening of storytelling, fellowship, and reflection as we experience the night of Christ’s birth through the eyes of a Bethlehem innkeeper.
Through laughter, unexpected visitors, and a table that just keeps getting more crowded, we’ll discover that while there may not always be room at our tables, there is always room at God’s table.
The evening will include:
🍇 A Biblical-Inspired Meal: Enjoy a delicious meal inspired by the foods of biblical times, shared in the warmth of fellowship and hospitality.
📖 Dramatic Storytelling: Brother Carlos Garbutt returns as a Bethlehem innkeeper trying to accommodate an endless stream of travelers during Caesar’s census. Through humor, heartfelt moments, and unexpected visitors, we’ll experience the wonder of the night our Savior was born.
🌿 A Live Floral Arrangement Demonstration: Discover how simple greenery, natural elements, and a little creativity can transform a table into a welcoming place, reminding us that hospitality is about more than what we have to offer.
✂️ A Meaningful Craft to Share: Create beautiful, Scripture-inspired bookmarks, including one to share with someone special as an invitation to fellowship and worship this Christmas season.
✨ A Message of Hope and Invitation: Reflect on the birth of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, who came to take away the sins of the world, and the beautiful promise that through Him, we are invited to a place at His table.
More than a meal, Bethlehem Dinner is an opportunity to experience the Christmas story in a new way, to open our hearts to others, and to remember the greatest invitation ever extended.
The King of Heaven came into a world with no room for Him, so that He could make room for us.
Come ready to laugh, reflect, connect, and celebrate the Savior who is still knocking at the door.
