We hear people say, "Bethel Family Church is a real come as your are type of church." Some are on a pathway to healing or restoration, others are just beginning their walk with God. Still others have taken a the rough path of and are fell welcomed to get connected. In all everyone is seeking God on some level of their lives. So, if you are just now starting to walk with God, coming back to a community of faith, or re-investigating previous held beliefs, you can come as you are and can connect with people who are on a similar journey.
You will see people from various ethnic, cultural, and economic backgrounds. You will see people of senior adults, youth, and middle aged people serving in all areas of the church. In all there is a place for you, and there are many places to connect.
We believe Church is not about sitting, watching, and consuming services, but we believe that church is about people using their God given gifts, talents, and abilities to strengthen, encourage, and build the church and others. We all bring something!
Our worship service is designed so that each person is free to engage God in worship. Our worship team is not going to entertain you, but encourage you to express your heart toward God because we know that in times of worship our hearts are open to God and He is faithful to direct, confirm, and speak to our hearts as we focus on Him.
Brief History:
One of the last things I wanted to do was ‘start a church’ especially in my home town. On top of this we knew too much about both big and small ministries and we were content to be a missionary and mobilize people who wanted to GO with God. It took some time, but God confirmed our direction to begin a new church in Sedalia. In the process we connected with the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel (see video below) and began planting the process of beginning Bethel Family Church. We began having bibles studies in our home, with up to 15 people, and began doing various things to help people in the community. Eventually we decided to find a building to begin having services, unfortunately we started during right in the middle of the Missouri State Fair, horrible decision, but God has been faithful through it all!
We invite you to be our guest!
