Bethel’s passion is helping people Come love God, Connect and love others, and Contribute by serving God.  Within “Connect and love others” we have a variety of opportunities because we believe that the “connect” aspect of one’s involvement at Bethel is integral to living out the Christian life.  We like to say that our “connect” opportunities flesh out in real life what we gain in our “Come” gatherings.  Our desire is to “connect” people who are willing to “do life” together.  If you have any questions about Bethel’s connection opportunities listed below feel free to contact Pastor Ben.
