Ministries

Children’s Ministry

On Sundays, children ages newborn to grade 5 experience fun, interactive, age-appropriate Bible lessons along with games, crafts, and activities that teach them about Jesus. After a group worship service filled with songs, videos, and a Bible lesson; they break into age-appropriate small groups for discussion, scripture memorization, and other fun activities. Their Wednesday night small groups are high-energy, action-packed groups with exciting and interesting Bible-centered lessons they won’t ever forget.

Youth Ministry

We believe it's vitally important for our youth ministry and parents to partner together in helping youth in grades 6 through 12 navigate through this crazy, unpredictable period of life, so they can confidently face the future and whatever life has to throw at them. We desire to develop strong foundations of commitment, discipleship, and dedication to Christ, so they can become the mighty young man or young woman Christ created them to be. Through weekly services, conventions, camps, outings, and one-on-one ministry; our goal is for our youth to build a strong relationship with Christ and other believers. Investment in our youth is an investment in the Church, as they are our next generation.

Young Adults

The Collective is Bethel Temple Church’s community of young adults, ages 18-39. This is a space designed for spiritual growth and community, where we explore and develop our faith together, figure out life together, and have fun building friendships together. We have real conversations about life and God, regular hangouts and group events to check out, and we shine a LIGHT on our community through various outreaches. Let’s do life as a collective – together.

Spanish Ministry

El ministerio hispano de Betel sigue sirviendo, apoyando y alcanzando las familias que viven en nuestra comunidad de Hampton Roads, con familias de Colombia, Peru, Salvador, Honduras, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Panama, Santo Domingo, Guatemala, y Cuba que han hecho de Betel su casa. Si le estas buscando significado a tu vida, ven y visitanos, encontraras una familia que te dará la bienvenida.



Our mission is to go beyond our walls and restore hope to the hopeless and provide opportunities for all to experience the transformational message of Jesus Christ. Our desire is to demonstrate His love in tangible ways to the many hurting people in our community. Jesus said, “...when I was hungry, you fed Me, and when I was naked, you clothed Me”; and we seek to fulfill His words through various outreach opportunities that include our food truck, community dinner, free haircuts, clothing closet, USDA food distribution, and food pantry.

Missions

The goal of Bethel Temple missions is to motivate and empower individuals to complete Christ's last command to make disciples of all nations, whether they are around the block here in Hampton Roads, or across the other side of the world.

To accomplish this, we support many full-time missionaries in various parts of the world. We also equip, train, and release individuals here in Hampton Roads to take the hope of the Gospel to those who may have never heard of God's love for them.

Worship & Media Arts

Worship and Arts has always been a cornerstone of Bethel Temple’s calling. We are blessed to have gifted singers, dancers, musicians, and technicians that make this ministry a testament of God’s greatness. We take the raw materials of our God-given gifts and talents and bring them together to create an atmosphere where His presence can dwell. Our mandate to usher God’s people into His very throne room is one we do not take lightly, but one we are honored to be called to fulfill. We believe every note, chord, tune, sound, light, and media element is a gift used for His glory. We invite like-minded individuals to join our choir, band, sound and media team to also use their gifts to glorify God and advance His Kingdom.

Beautiful Sisterhood 

We believe that we were not created to walk through life alone. Through dynamic, inspiring and fun gatherings, Beautiful Sisterhood creates environments and opportunities for women to grow spiritually, emotionally and socially as we mature in Christ and build lasting relationships with each other.

Men of Bethel (MOB)

Our men’s ministry is known for their hearty breakfast seminars and rugged camp conferences. Through these ministry opportunities, men get the opportunity to witness God’s power in their own lives and the lives of other men. This allows them to be a better husband, father, son, brother, disciple of Christ; and ultimately the man God created them to be. Our men’s small groups are safe places where men can be real, honest, open, and transparent about their lives and struggles they face on a daily basis. It’s here where they mentor and get mentored, so they can lead victorious lives in Christ as leaders in their families, communities, and church.

 

Senior Adult Ministry (SAM)

There's no "retiring" for our senior saints ages 60+. When it comes to serving Jesus, His church, His people, and His world; these wise, strong, and committed folks can run circles around most half their age! They are determined to continue to fulfill God's call on their lives, no matter how “seasoned” they get. This group travels, lunches, ministers, and does all things fun and exciting. Many in our senior adult ministry have been saved 50 years and more, and they love to use their experience to mentor, disciple, and train up those following in their footsteps. If you want to be blessed and challenged; spend some quality time with one of our senior saints!
