Bethlehem UMC

Bethlehem UMC Bethlehem UMC is a small congregation that will greet you at the door with a hug and make you feel right at home. Join us for worship at 10:15am on Sunday.

This small, but active, church is comprised of families who are committed to doing life together. Worshipping at Bethlehem means being brought into life with this Davis Station community. Our choir is small but powerful, our people are excited to see visitors, and our worship strives to be open to the movement of the Holy Spirit. Bethlehem UMC is part of a three-point charge with Union UMC (11:20a

m) in the Wilson community, and Jordan UMC (9:00am) in the Jordan community. The three churches are led by Rev. Katherine Haselden, and regularly have charge-wide events where the congregations come together to fellowship, worship, or share a meal.

A Prayer for Unity

Dear Father,
Just as it was when Jesus made his home on earth,
The world can be a hateful and cruel place.
We ask that you would guide our actions as believers.
Give us an eagerness to be humble and gentle.
Help us have hearts of patience and forbearance.
Thank You for the hope we have in You;
May Your hope unify our thoughts and decisions
And invoke peace through the Spirit.
