Henryetta, OK:  This Saturday, September 7th, Henryetta welcomes a new addition to its vibrant Main Street. Located at 416 W Main Street, Beth-Arabah—meaning “House of the Desert” in Hebrew—is set to open its doors. More than just a Christian bookstore, Beth-Arabah offers a delightful mix of vintage glassware, children’s books, casual clothing, and unique gifts.

The store also features a cozy coffee shop, where customers can enjoy made-to-order coffees and fresh-baked goods by Reagan Case owner of the Jenks based Shirley Beautiful Events. Don’t miss seeing her delightful creations on her Facebook page! @ShirleyBeautifulEvents.

Owner LaVola Case envisions Beth-Arabah as “an oasis for people to find peace and enjoyment” and hopes her visitors will enjoy a moment of solitude.

The building, originally a clothing store built in 1910, retains its historic charm with original fixtures that LaVola has repurposed into quaint nooks for reading, sipping coffee, and savoring a cookie. LaVola, the daughter of a Beggs minister, felt a calling thirteen years ago to create “an oasis” for women. “‘Where every woman is welcome and no woman is alone’ is what I kept on my heart, but of course, my store is open to everyone. Not just women,” LaVola explained.

After years of searching for the perfect location, a random Google search led her to this downtown Henryetta building, which perfectly matched her vision. At the back of the store, a charming sitting area is ready to host Bible study groups, meetings, craft groups, and other social gatherings that foster fellowship and comfort.

Beth-Arabah invites the community to its grand opening this Saturday. The store will be open Tuesday through Friday from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, and on Saturdays from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Stop by to experience this new oasis in the heart of Henryetta.

You can follow Beth-Arabah on Facebook @lavolacase until the store page is ready.
