Our Mission.
The mission of Bethany is to build a worshipping community of disciples who live as faithful witnesses for the glory of God, brining the transforming truth and grace of Jesus Christ to our communities and to the world.
Our Vision.
We seek to be a church that is characterized by the following:
+ Building Community
As a worshipping community we recognize our need for the grace of Jesus Christ and His power to heal and transform us in order to be a blessing to our communities. Our worship is to be genuine, honest, broken, and transparent before God. We seek to become a culturally sensitive church that welcomes all people of all ethnicities, origins, and backgrounds, affirming each person both individually and as a critical part of the body of Christ. Recognizing our identity as redeemed children of Jesus Christ, we will base our fellowship on corporate prayer, accountability, and encouragement.
+ Making Disciples
We are called to make disciples of all who are in our community, from the youngest child to the eldest among us. With the Word of God as our center and foundation, we seek to grow in understanding and obedience to the counter-cultrual Gospel of Christ on our campuses, workplaces, and families. We recognize the Lordship of Christ over our resources, skills and gifts, careers, families, and ambitions, and seek to submit our lives to His purposes and His glory. Located in Boston - a highly transitional city - Bethany will make the most of its opportunity to equip its congregation to make an impact for Christ wherever God calls them.
+ Focusing on Missions
As a church and as individuals, we are committed to Christ's Great Commission. We believe that our discipleship should overflow into mission, as we become agents for God's kingdom. Starting with our own friends, families, classmates, and coworkers, we will actively share the truth of Christ in thought, word, and deed. As a church we will be mission-focused through our God-filled lifestyles, joyful giving, devoted sending, and active outreach.
