access for people with disabilities

Bethel has been designated as an “Accessible Congregation” by the National Organization on Disability.

An Accessible Congregation commits to these three principles:

+ In our congregation, people with disabilities are valued as individuals, having been created in the image of God.

+ Our congregation is endeavoring to remove barriers of architecture, communication, and attitudes that exclude people with disabilities from full and active participation

+ People, with or without disabilities, are encouraged in our congregation to practice their faith and use their gifts in worship, service, study and leadership

ACCESS: IT BEGINS IN THE HEART…Opening hearts, minds and open to people with disabilities

Bethel’s facilities are handicapped accessible and aids for people with hearing or visual impairments are available from ushers before each service.
