Worship

Worship is a time we set aside time to honor and thank God for everything God has given us- unconditional love, forgiveness, reconciliation, security, peace, comfort, strength, wisdom, hope, patience, persistent tenderness, freedom, and much more. As we worship, we focus our attention on the one and only living God who is always available to us. We sing, play instruments, pray, read scripture, hear a pastor’s message, and encounter God through the Spirit of God’s Son, Jesus Christ. Worship transforms our lives, heals our wounded souls, renews our hope, shapes our decisions, inspires our compassion, and binds us together.

At Bethlehem First UMC, we are passionate about our worship and offer our best to praise God with excellence. To provide opportunities for people to connect with God and each other, we offer five different opportunities to worship:

Sunday Morning Worship Services:
9:30 Contemporary Service in the Worship Center
11:00 Traditional Service in the Sanctuary

If you are unable to join us in person, we invite you to worship with us LIVE online or watch a service at your convenience during the week. 

Whether you are worshiping in person or online, help us better serve you by filling out a quick Online Connection Card.

Kidz Nursery is available for children 6 weeks to 2 years old. Kidz Preschool is available for children 3 to 4 years old. Children in PreK through 5th grade attend service with their parents during the first 15-20 minutes while we worship and pray and then are dismissed to Kidz Church for age appropriate lessons and activities. Children in 6th through 12th grade also attend service for the first 15-20 minutes and then are dismissed to Rooted Youth Sunday School for age appropriate lessons and activities. They are currently only meeting during the 9:30am service but have plans to start meeting at 11am later this year.
