Next steps

Your next step starts here.

From first visit to family

Following Jesus is a journey, and every journey is taken one step at a time. Wherever you are today, here is how to take the next one at New Bethel.

01

Come and see

Visit on a Sunday

Every step starts with a first one. Join us for worship at 9:00 AM, meet a few people, and see what God is doing here. Kids and youth have their own classes during worship.

02

Belong

Become a member

When you join a United Methodist church, you profess your faith in Jesus Christ and promise to support the church with your prayers, your presence, your gifts, your service and your witness.

If New Bethel feels like home, we’d be honored to welcome you. Joining begins with a simple conversation with Pastor Jemiriye, who will walk you through what membership means and how members are received during Sunday worship.

03

Begin

Get baptized

Baptism is a sign of God’s grace: God’s love claiming us before we ever respond. United Methodists baptize people of every age, from infants to adults, and baptism is received once. If you were baptized in another Christian church, that baptism is honored here too.

Whether you’re asking for yourself or for your child, talk with Pastor Jemiriye. He’ll gladly meet with you to prepare.

04

Grow

Join a group

Faith grows in friendship. Our weekly groups are open to everyone. Just come.
