Celebrating the Good News
of Jesus in Hay-on-Wye
Welcome to Bethesda
Whether you are a local or on holiday, looking for a place to belong or exploring faith in Jesus, you are very welcome to our church. Our passion is to proclaim the good news of the Gospel and to encourage people to learn more about Jesus and to grow in their faith.
If you are new to Bethesda you will find lots of information on our website about who’s who, our Sunday services along with what’s on. When you come along to our church you can expect a genuine and warm welcome, time in God's Word, prayer and worship. We want you to feel at home with us whether you are visiting any of our services or weekly activities or if you simply want to ask questions about faith. There is no pressure or expectations, just an open invitation.
