Youth, Kids, & Families

at Bethany UMC

We love Kids & youth at
Bethany UMC

If you spend any time around our church at all, you'll quickly learn one thing: we love kids. They're smart. They're funny. They're bold. And they're bursting with potential. We truly believe that the kids and youth in our midst are world changers in the making.

  • A group of children and an adult sitting around a wooden table in a room with natural light coming through windows. The children are engaged in an activity with books and papers, some holding pencils, while the adult is gesturing and holding a pencil, leading the discussion.

    Youth

    Bethany’s Youth Ministry is a safe, comfortable, LGBTQIA+ friendly place where you can be yourself, hang out with friends, and explore your faith.  

  • Children in a classroom, some standing and some sitting, engaged in conversation and activities.

    Kids

    Our Kids ministry is full of fun, safe spaces where kids can connect and learn more about what it means to follow Jesus.
