Arts


The Arts Ministry encourages art in the broadest sense including visual, spoken, theatre and movement. We work with other Bethany ministries such as Worship and Children's to present the Gospel in ways that touch the soul and bring beauty within our buildings.

To get involved with the arts, contact Arts Elder Jenn Cavanaugh. 



Membership



Becoming a member is choosing to participate in the Ministry of Membership – exploring ways to serve the mission of the church, becoming more connected in her life, including the importance of worship. Membership supports the Unity of the Church in Jesus Christ, while loving one another across our differences.
