Welcome to Bethel Lutheran Church

A Message From Pastor Gauch...

Greetings in the name of Christ! I'd like to extend a warm welcome and thank you for visiting our Bethel Lutheran Church website. You can take a virtual tour here, but we'd like to invite you to take a real tour and to visit us sometime if you haven't already.

You will see by our photos and schedule information that we are a lively, innovative, and Spirit-led
congregational family. We are pleased to be the only Lutheran congregation in Jamestown, New York, to be using the new Evangelical Lutheran Worship Hymnal.

We are also pleased to be the only congregation to offer a bi-weekly Saturday evening informal Contemporary Service at 5:30 P.M. in our Fellowship Hall.

Bethel's preschool is the first and oldest church-housed early childhood educational program in Jamestown.

Our staff is absolutely top-notch in every area of ministry they are responsible for. Our mission is to spread and nurture the Christian faith both inside and outside our building. We serve our local community through a variety of ministries, including a free clothing closet and an emergency food pantry.

We'd like to invite you to worship with us, to meet our congregational family, to enjoy excellence in worship and music and to be part of the Body of Christ at 904 West Third Street.

Thanks again for  visiting us, and please feel free to phone or email the Church at any time if we can be of any service to you, or your family members.

In His Service,

The Rev. Norm Gauch, Pastor
