Missions at Bethel UMC Columbia

At Bethel, we are involved in missions around the world as well as close to home (here locally in Forest Acres, South Carolina). Below you will find current missions our Bethel family is continuing to support.

If you or someone you know is interested in serving others through one of our outreach projects, please contact our Bethel Church Office. Or you can reach us by calling (803) 787-3058. We always look forward to hearing from you!
