The purpose of Bethel Baptist Church is to glorify the Almighty God. The foundation of our worship service is the preaching of the Word of God. Our intent is to proclaim Christ to those who do not believe, to instruct those who believe, and to help send missionaries into the world.

On June 23, 1864, that group of nine believers formally organized as a church. The early members met in homes and rented facilities until May 8, 1870, when they completed construction and dedicated their own chapel on the northwest corner of St. Aubin and Mullett Streets, just east of downtown Detroit between Gratiot and East Jefferson Avenue.

Missionary Update: July 2010
What a blessing it is to write to you from Japan and share about the ministry here! It was such a joy to return and find four of my friends from Gospel choir waiting for me at the airport. They were all even willing to give me a hug! We had a cup of tea and a sandwich and I tried to follow along in my jet-lagged state of mind. They assured me that I had not forgotten my Japanese.

“If the Son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.”
In America we celebrate our freedoms with fireworks and patriotic songs. The privilege of living in this country is wondrous and glorious.

My parents were just up from South Carolina and we had a great visit. One of the things I recall fondly from family get-togethers as a kid was listening to the grown-ups telling family stories. In my Grandparents’ home there was a heating grate in the ceiling of the dining room. It was just a one foot square grate to allow warm air to flow upstairs. I recall lying around that grate with my siblings and cousins as the adults played games at the dining room table below. We weren’t interested in the games, but we were listening to the stories about our parents and grandparents (and sometimes us) that were being told around the table. It is a great memory of laughter and ribbing and history.
