Welcome We’re glad you have found your way to us! If you’re looking for a church to call home, we’re a church where you can come just as you are. We’re a church that loves spiritual exploration and adventure, and values living out our faith in making our community more welcoming, just, and connected. When you’re at Bethel, you don’t need to believe one specific, one-size-fits all faith to belong—we love being on our own spiritual journeys together. We’re grounded in the Christian tradition, but we are passionate about drawing on many sources of wisdom that inform how we live our lives today. We don’t take ourselves too seriously. Our worship and life together as a church is full of laughter as well as tears. At our core, we believe that faith community offers something vital for our lives and for our wider communities. We are fully inclusive, including in leadership, of all genders and gender identities. We look forward to meeting you! |
Parent Connection Circles: Learning to support our LGBTQIA+ kids
Are you the parent of an LGBTQIA+ kid in the Gorge and looking to connect with other parents of LGBTQIA+ kids, please consider joining us.
Parent Connection Circles meet monthly August-October. Our goal is to give parents a place to be supported so that, in turn, can support our wonderful kids on their unique LGBTQIA+ journeys. This group is led by two parents of LGBTQIA+ young adults.

At Bethel, we strive to be more than your typical church. When you give to Bethel, yes, you support administration to run and keep the building in good working condition. But our desire is to be more than a place of worship on Sunday mornings; we want to broaden our partnerships with our local Gorge community -- Collaborators for the Common Good.
This is why we support Gorge MakerSpace, providing the building and grounds they use. It's also why we partner in the community to bring Our Whole Lives (OWL) to the Gorge. We also actively support WAGAP, the Food Bank, Columbia Gorge Peace Village, and other vital networks in Klickitat, Skamania, Hood River, and beyond. By giving generously to Bethel, you make all of this possible. Thank You! |
