Mission and community outreach are two very important areas at the heart of our congregation. If you’re looking for a project with a good cause that will make a difference in your world, or even just in your neighborhood, become involved at Bethesda!

Making a Difference in Our Community, One Meal at a Time – Bethesda supports Our Daily Bread by serving a meal every month on the 4th Tuesday.  For additional information visit their website – https://www.ourdailybreadmot.com/

Bethesda’s congregation collects non-perishable food items to stock the shelves of the food pantry located at the Neighborhood House in Middletown. To contribute to the collection, simply bring a non-perishable food item to church with you on Sunday morning and place it in the  tub, located next to the office.

Bethesda also actively participates in the Harvest Outreach People’s Project or HOPP.   Food Distributions are the 4th Friday of every month starting at noon in our parking lot.  To learn more, visit https://thehopp.org

Our Helping Hands Committee frequently participates in mission projects that benefit our community on both local and global levels. Information on how you can help is published in our Sunday bulletin on a weekly basis.
