Since its founding in 1876, Bethesda has been the heartbeat of the Garner community. Named after the healing pool in Jerusalem (John 5:2), Bethesda means “House of Mercy” and welcomes families in every stage of life with open arms. We value personal relationship and community impact. While our mission extends beyond the walls of our buildings, God has blessed Bethesda with a beautiful campus to be used for His glory. Wherever you’ve been and whatever your gifts may be, Bethesda is a place where you can belong and serve. We have a passion for inspiring as well as giving practical tools to enable every person who walks through our doors to become a true disciple of Jesus Christ. We would be blessed by your presence. Come as you are!!
