TRUSTING JESUS IN A WILD WORLD

Get ready for the summer event that points kids to Jesus, a faithful friend we can always trust! Here kids explore how easy it is to lose sight of what’s true in our wild world today and learn that Jesus is our true north. Throughout the month of August at True North VBA, you can expect faith discoveries, memorable music, and epic adventures that help kids grow in friendship with Jesus!

True North VBA will be happening every Sunday in August during our normal gathering times at both campuses for kids up through 5th grade. Also, it’s free! We hope you will save these dates in August for your kids to experience this fun event! It’s our prayer that True North VBA will help everyone trust in Jesus in our wild world.

Women's Conference 2025

Women's Conference 2025

Bethel Church (map)

september 12 & 13, 2025


Calling all girls! We were not created to do life alone.

The TOGETHER Conference is designed to bring women across Southwest Washington (and beyond!), TOGETHER — to fully embrace the fact that: We are Loved. We are Chosen. We are Called. 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 instructs us, “Be on guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous. Be strong. And do everything with love.”  In the culture we live in, how do we do that?
 
Ladies, we are excited to stand beside you as this incredible weekend unfolds! At the Together Conference, you’ll experience unity as we worship Jesus, hear from our anointed conference speaker, and gain insights and encouragement from other women who are on the journey…women who are JUST LIKE YOU. When we stand firm in our faith shoulder to shoulder, we are stronger and more beautiful than ever, because we’ll encounter Jesus and become a conduit of His endless, perfect love.
 
Our workshops this year will help us grow in our faith, as well as give us tangible, life-giving tools to step into any situation we may face in life with courage and confidence. We’ll connect with one another in a smaller setting - whether it’s creating beautiful items, laughing and having fun, or sharing ideas that help us navigate tough seasons of life. There is no doubt that you’ll be refreshed and inspired!
 
This is your invitation! Jump in and be a part of this amazing weekend. After all, it wouldn’t be the same without YOU!
 
Ladies 12 years and above are welcome to attend, so bring your friends, neighbors, co-workers, and all of the women in your life to "TOGETHER" September 12th & 13th.

Water Baptisms

Water Baptisms

The Meaning of Baptism

To be baptized is to clothe oneself with Christ (Mark 10:38-39; Luke 12:50). Christian baptism is in a sense a sharing of this death and resurrection and all that brought Christ to those events (Romans 6:1-7; Colossians 2:12). Baptism shows that a person has died to the old way of life and has been raised to a new kind of life – eternal life in Christ (Matthew 28:19-20; Colossians 3:1; 2 Timothy 2:11). The resurrection from the water points to the Christian’s resurrection (Romans 6:1-16).
