MINISTRIES
Discipleship
Bethel’s ministries are focused upon discipleship, fellowship and outreach.
In discipleship we seek to train our members to be faithful followers of Christ by teaching them to observe all that Christ has commanded and to love God with all their heart and to walk in holiness.
In our fellowship we nurture our mutual growth as the communion of saints through love, prayer, service, encouragement, fellowship and gifts.
In outreach we answer God’s call to love our neighbor, to testify to our hope in Christ, to be salt and light in the world, to partner with those who spread the gospel, and to pray to the Lord for his harvest.
Men’s Bible Study
Men’s Bible Study will resume in the fall.

Pizza & Prayer
In the early days of the church we read that, “they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.” (Acts 2:42) Devotion to fellowship and prayer still marks the church today. Bethel’s “Pizza & Prayer” presents an opportunity for the members of our church to enjoy a meal together and share in prayer afterwards.
We meet on Wednesdays at 6:00 p.m. for pizza and prayer at 6:45 p.m. A nursery is provided. Please call ahead, 630.665.5577, if you would like to share in the pizza.
During the Summer Months, Pizza & Prayer is replaced by Summerful of Wednesdays comprising of a bring-your-own picnic, a short devotional, and spontaneously organized games at 6:00 p.m.
