During the month of October our children & students are collecting items for Operation Christmas Child! Items being collected include small toys, toiletries, & school supplies small enough to fit inside of a shoebox that will be sent to a boy or girl ages 2-14 this Christmas season thanks to Samaritan's Purse. Donation boxes are set up all over campus & you can bring your items up until November 11! Help us share the joy of Christmas & the message of the gospel with young people all over the world this Christmas season.

For more than 160 years, Bethel Baptist Church has been a lighthouse in the Socrum community—serving families, loving our neighbors, proclaiming the Gospel, and pointing people to the hope we have in Jesus Christ!

This year, we’re celebrating our 163rd Homecoming and we would love for YOU to be part of it!

For this special Sunday, we’ll worship as one church family in one combined service at 10 AM.

And the celebration doesn’t stop when the service ends!

Join us afterward for dinner on the grounds as we gather around tables, share good food, enjoy fellowship, and celebrate the community God has allowed Bethel to serve for generations.

Families are encouraged to bring a dish to share!

163 years of faith.
163 years of family.
163 years of community.

Come celebrate the past, give thanks for God’s faithfulness, and look forward to all He has in store for the future.

We’d love to worship with you!
