About Us
Crossroads
We are working on the building and preparing Bethel for the future after 138+ years of service. Bethel is transforming into a beacon of hope for our young people. We are open to a new generation of worshippers, style and delivery in the name of Jesus Christ. What does the African American Church look like after the COVID-19 pandemic? VISION Understanding the interconnectedness of economics, religion, and the legacy of the African American Church.
Our Church
Bethel Presbyterian Church was officially organized as a Chapel on November 23,1884, although its little group of founders had been meeting for worship service as early as 1880. The concept of Bethel Church was started in the home of the late Mrs. Lucretia Johnson.
Our previous Pastor, Minister Jonathan Williams, recently died from Covid-19. Since his death, we continue to stay on the path of righteousness with our on line ministry. Bethel Presbyterian Church is very much alive, and on December 11, 2022, we celebrated our anniversary of 138 years.
Monthly Celebrations
At the end of each month, we have a birthday party for all the members with birthdays in that month.
New York City Trip
Our Church had an excellent trip to go see Aurelia, a daughter of one of our members, perform as Asaka in the Broadway Musical called Once on this Island. It was an excellent performance and a must-see. All of the actors and actresses were simply phenomenal!
Congratulations to all of the members of the production Once On This Island for your Tony nomination!
