  Bethel Then and Now  

Bethel U.C.C. is and has been an active church in the Evansville community for over one hundred years. In 1904, a church was formed and became Bethel Evangelical Church. It was located at the corner of Garvin Street and Jefferson Avenue. The United Church of Christ was born when the Evangelical and Reformed Church united with the Congregational Christian Church in 1957. Bethel United Church of Christ moved to its current location at 3029 N. Green River Road in 1981. We are proud of our rich history and traditions, but continue to explore new ways to worship and serve God as we look to the future.

We covenant with one another to seek and respond to the Word and the Will of God. We proclaim as our purpose to walk together in the ways of the Lord, made known and to be made known to us. We hold it to be the mission of the church to witness to the gospel of Jesus Christ in all the world, to worship God, and to strive for truth, justice and peace. As did our ancestors, we depend on the Holy Spirit to lead and empower us. We pray for the Realm of God, and we look with faith toward the triumph of righteousness and eternal life.
