Opportunities for Spiritual Growth
Bethlehem UMC enjoys a small group ministry called LIFE (Love–Instruction–Fellowship–Example) Groups. These are small groups–usually 6 to 8 people–who gather regularly to engage in worship, to study God’s word, to pray for lost souls, and to plan for providing service to others.
The purpose of these groups is to help those who participate grow spiritually by helping to deepen their personal relationship with God, to help build and strengthen God’s connected community, and to share in outreach and mission work to our local community.
