Dear Friends,

I think we can all agree - Tyler is a remarkable place to live. There's a shared pride in our community that runs deep, and for good reason; behind the scenes of our thriving city are thousands of hardworking individuals who make it all possible. They build and maintain our homes, prepare and serve our meals, run the businesses we rely on, care for our children, and provide everyday services that enrich our lives.

And yet, many of these essential workers struggle to afford one of the most basic human needs: health care.

At Bethesda Health Clinic, we exist to change that. Our model is simple but powerful - to provide high-quality, compassionate care that heals the body, mind, and spirit in the name of Jesus. We help people return to work, support their families, and continue contributing to the economy and the life of our community. The truth is clear: when people have access to health care, they're able to work. And when they're able to work, households, businesses, and communities thrive.

Bethesda's success began with servant
leadership - the kind modeled by Jesus
himself. That authenticity has inspired a movement. Over the years, we've brought together medical professionals, volunteers, philanthropists, and everyday neighbors who believe in something bigger than themselves.

They are all advocates and living witnesses to the power of God - committed Christians who are changing the world by improving lives and boldly sharing the love of Christ.

For more than 20 years, Bethesda has been
a beacon in our community, fulfilling its
mission with excellence and integrity.
But now, we've reached a pivotal moment.

We are simply out of space.

To meet the growing needs of our patients,
we must grow. We have launched this capital campaign to relocate and improve our facilities because the future of affordable health care depends on it.

I'm asking you to join me and consider the value Bethesda brings to our city - and how, whether we realize it or not, it touches each of us.

When our neighbors are healthy,
our community is stronger. We need you.

Will you join us in this exciting new chapter? Together, we can build a healthier Tyler - for this generation and the next.

With gratitude,

Dear Friends of Bethesda,

I know firsthand - from my own childhood - the difference that compassionate care and community support can make. When a family is struggling just to meet the basic necessities of life, access to quality healthcare can feel like an impossible dream.

Organizations like Bethesda, and people like you, are what make that dream a reality.

Our clinic has been bursting at the seams. That's a good problem, in a way - it means we're serving more patients, providing more hope, and saying "yes" to more families in need. But it's also a challenge. The demand for affordable, quality healthcare is growing rapidly in our community, and we've simply outgrown our current space.

We need a new building - not just for more room, but for more impact.

This isn't about walls and windows.
It's about creating a space that reflects
the dignity of the people we serve; a space where families can receive care with comfort and compassion.

A space with room to grow, to innovate and to serve the next generation - because we're not just caring for patients today.

This project is investing in the health and
stability of families for decades to come.

With your help, we can transform the future of healthcare for our community.

This next chapter for Bethesda is bold, but it's necessary. And we can't do it without you.

With deepest gratitude,

Shannon Dacus
