Bible Study

Mission

To proclaim, celebrate, and share the love of Christ with our neighbors through an accepting, caring community.

Origins

1951 – The new community of Mountlake Terrace was formed. As people held prayer and Bible study meetings in their homes, the Lutheran Free Church sent a mission worker to meet with people wanting to form a congregation. Sunday School services began in the fall. A local developer donated two lots on 56th Avenue West, and construction of our church began. In the still incomplete but high soaring building, 37 worshippers gathered for their first morning worship on Christmas, 1951. They called their church Bethesda, which means “House of Healing”. Bethesda was formally organized on March 1, 1953.

Future

Bright! Our little congregation is experiencing fresh energy and a resurgence of vision.  We have members who have decades of membership, and we have members who are fairly new to Christianity. Bethesda is committed to ensuring that Good News emanates from this place.  God is doing something here!  We are located in the heart of Mountlake Terrace, and we are here for good! New neighbors are checking us out, and we invite you to join the fun.

We live stream our services from the sanctuary every week, and we’re getting pretty good at it.  We are glad to welcome worshippers from all over the country and from just around the corner.  Folks who can’t get here physically only need a little technological help to reconnect to this caring faith community.  Let’s see how we can get you hooked up if you need assistance.  You can also look up archived services on YouTube (check out this service from November 28, 2021)
