Bethel United Church of Christ is a flourishing congregation of Christians located among the rolling farmland hills of Freedom Township in Manchester, Michigan. Bethel is a historic church founded in 1840, that today is a vital and growing congregation of more than 450 members. Our church reflects the diversity of the surrounding communities of Manchester, Saline, Chelsea, Bridgewater, and Ann Arbor. We are a welcoming and diverse congregation - young and old, married and single - that includes both long-time generational members and newcomers. As members of a United Church of Christ, we believe that it is the will of God that every person belong to a family of faith where they have a strong sense of being valued and loved. Excellent worship, mission outreach, an education program for children, youth and adults, and a strong tradition of congregational fellowship characterize our life as a church.
