~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE DISCIPLESHIP MINISTRY 
We should hold people accountaable to themselves and to each other in order to grow in Christ. Discipleship should create an environment for each attendee to feel the need to grow up with Jesus Christ. Our goal is for each member at Bethel to become an active disciple for Christ in education and discipleship. 

The Disciple Ministry at Bethel is committed to supplying quality Christian Fellowship Studies for your spiritual growth and for armor against the secular world! We offer three adult classes, including a  Wednesday evening Bible study, a ladies Bible study, Presbyterian Women Bible study.  It is our hope to offer something for everyone. *********************************************************************

 Bible Studies Galore!    
   
Spring is coming and we have Bible studies popping up everywhere!  You are encouraged to find the ones that interest you and fit your schedule and come.
