About Bethel
Baptist Church

At Bethel we seek to be followers after Jesus. As we live and share our lives, we want to bring glory to God and realise his kingdom here on earth. We aim to do this under the teaching of the Bible and in the power of the Holy Spirit.

The Lord invites us to come into His presence to praise and worship Him and to be taught from His word:

Colossians
3:15-17

“Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.”
