Welcome! We're glad you are here!

What to expect on your first visit:

  • Worship starts at 9:00 am on Sundays. You’ll probably want to arrive five minutes early to be ready for worship.
  • As you enter, ushers will welcome you, hand you a printed bulletin, and can help you locate our nursery, assistive listening devices, and restrooms.
  • Services usually last about 75 minutes. Afterwards, there is coffee, snacks, and a chance for casual conversations.
  • You’ll see people dressed in shorts, jeans, and t-shirts; skirts and slacks; blazers, hats, and ties. Wear anything that is appropriate in public!
"This is what God's kingdom is like: a bunch of outcasts and oddballs gathered at a table, not because they are rich or worthy or good, but because they are hungry, because they said yes. And there's always room for more."

At Bethlehem, we celebrate Communion every Sunday. God offers this meal to you and all people so that you will know you are loved, and to transform you into the body of Christ for the sake of the world. You are welcome to celebrate and receive Christ with us at the table, whether you are a guest or member, believer or doubter. Details are in the bulletin.

We are an intergenerational community of faith, and children are most welcome in our worship service! A brief children’s sermon is given each week, and children are welcome to receive communion or a blessing. We have themed Sunday sacks with a Bible story activity for children under 10, and baby sacks for preschoolers that include crayons and a toy or puzzle to keep little hands busy. These can be picked up as you enter the worship space.

If your child needs a break during the worship service, there is plenty of room in our beautiful Gathering Space, just outside the Sanctuary. There is a small playground in our courtyard. We also have a nursery, staffed with background-checked caregivers during our worship service. It is intended for children under 5, and you’ll find it in the lower level of the building, on the east side of the courtyard.

 

 

 

 

Every second Sunday of the month, Bethlehem offers dinner worship we call The Table at 4:00 pm. 

Join us for a family friendly evening of worship, simple meal and faith formation. The Table includes a short worship service, holy communion, and guitar-led songs.

(Please note during the season of Lent, The Table will be on hiatus and will return in June.)
