Children's Ministry
Bethlehem First United Methodist Church is a family of faith that is passionate in its commitment to children and families. We seek to partner with families in providing a spiritual foundation through Jesus Christ in the lives of our children. At BFUMC our goal is to provide age appropriate opportunities for children to grow as followers of Jesus Christ. They will experience the how God is present with them and participate in the of the church. They will learn to use their Bible, pray, give, serve, and share the good news of God's love and grace. Our desire is to provide quality and relevant experiences through our ministry opportunties. Getting connected... There are many ways for children and families to connect with the Children's ministry at Bethlehem First.
