Know. Experience. Share

At Bethel Kids, we believe every child should have a place to belong! We have created an environment where kids can come to Know, Experience and Share Jesus. We want kids to know God personally and understand that they are known by Him. We will have opportunities to experience Holy Spirit and the love, peace and wisdom He has to give through worship, prayer, teaching and reading God’s Word. We will equip and empower kids to share Jesus beyond the 4 walls of our church building.

Energy, energy, energy

Jr. High is a special program that is for Grades 6-8. We find that this age gap is really where kids begin to become their own person, so we’ve designed a night that helps them discover who they are in Christ! Expect high energy games, music, and time to learn what God’s Word is all about!

A place for every young person to belong & discover God.

If you are a student between between Grade 8-12 come hang with us every Wednesday night! Every student is welcome no matter what you believe, just come as you are. Expect tons of teenagers from Stratford & beyond all coming together for community, games, worship, & experiencing the presence of God through His Word + Grade Groups

Grade Groups

We believe every young person needs a safe space to talk about life. Each week that we have a message, sermon, or talk, students gather in their Grade Groups to reflect and chat about what they learned, what God is saying to them, ask questions, and to pray together.

Developing leadership & character through sports.

Heavenly Hoops is a basketball program that was established in 2005 at Bethel Church. It has been running each year from January to April.
This program welcomes any child or student between the ages of 7 to 14 in Stratford and surrounding areas.

Throughout each season, regardless of a players skill and ability, they will leave with personal skill development through mentoring coaches. As well they will experience life changing encounters from Bible stories and teachings.

Life Groups are a vital part of our faith! We were designed to be in community. Our groups are simple! There are leaders & hosts to each group in different locations where you will connect, build friendships, and chat about that week’s Sunday message.

Find Community Here

If you are between the ages of 18 & 29 come and join us every Monday night as
we gather in community. Come as you are and enjoy the relaxed environment
where the coffee is flowing, the conversations matter,
and friendships are discovered!

Empowering each other to live for Jesus.

We so value women connecting with each other and the Lord, to discover all that God has for us. Join us through the year for special events, including worship & testimony nights, creative nights, connect groups and more!

Sometimes the guys like to hang out and bond.. caveman style. So, if you like chicken wings or Texas BBQ and hanging around with other guys who are solid in character and serious about their relationship with the Lord, then consider joining our men’s fellowship. Come experience friendship and the meat sweats all at the same time.

Serving Locally & Globally

At Bethel, we believe in the Good News of Jesus – and so we’ve sent out, partnered with, and supported missionaries and ministries locally in our city, country, and around the globe. Missions include both meeting the needs of soul and body: telling those who haven’t yet heard about God’s love for them and serving their daily needs.
