Pathway to Membership

While all believers in Jesus are “members” of His church, the Bethel Church family values the unique voice of “official members,” who influence a variety of strategic ministry responsibilities, ranging from the selection of elders and senior pastor to the approval of the budget and by-laws. If you are interested in deepening your connection with the Bethel Church family, membership is a meaningful step to take!

The following pathway leads to becoming an official member:
