OUR STORY
How it all started...
Bethlehem Baptist Church was originally established Jun 29th, 1838. It had humble beginnings as a small log house with one door and one window.
In 1961, the church was expanded and renovated to what is pictured to the right.
The Great Tornado of 1970
In 1970, a tornado hit and destroyed the church. There are stories that while everything in the church was destroyed, untouched and unscathed was The Bible--lying among the ruins.
The church was rebuilt in 1970 and its members faithfully continued on.
Rebuilding After Destruction
The church was rebuilt and the faithful congregants continued meeting.
Growth and Expansion...
In 1996, a new church building was erected and renovated to what Bethlehem Baptist Church is today. It's membership now includes 200+ faithful church members who are involved in many of our volunteer and community outreach programs.
