Evangelism and Missions
We desire for all people of all nations to share in the joy of the gospel. Therefore, we carry out God's plan to reach the world with the good news of a crucified and risen Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. Locally, our Evangelism Team leads the church to engage in multiple projects that connect our church to our community and our community to Christ. Globally, we support missions by partnering with Southern Baptist through the Cooperative Program. Currently, Bethany has church members serving in internationally in places like Iraq and Southeast Asia.
Solid Truth. Sincere Hearts. Strategic Ministries.
