Bethel MCC is a diverse community of Christian believers who are committed to affirming the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered Community and their friends by meeting their spiritual and practical needs.
Our Mission We affirm that we are called to be an ecumenical and inclusive Christian ministry of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered Community open to all people. We believe that God calls us through Scripture, experience, and prayers to be a faithful people, embodying God's love. We express this love through worship, prayer, education, social advocacy, and celebration. In this way, we build and sustain an affirming, giving congregation that fosters healing and spiritual growth. As a Church largely peopled by Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered folk, families, friends, and supporters: we are in a unique position to proclaim the love of God to each and every person, just as we are, created by God, called to be people of God. We gain strength, compassion, and yearning for justice from our efforts to reunite our spirituality with our sexuality in a Church where such struggles are welcomed, encouraged, and understood. |
