Women's Group
Our Mission
We seek to touch the lives of all women at Bethesda as we grow in faith "knowing Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior". We strive to offer Christian fellowship and friendship as we find opportunities to "make Him real in our lives, and the lives of others", within Bethesda, the community at large, and the world; wherever the Lord shall lead.
Our Bethesda Women’s group typically holds 6 special events per year. See below
