Who We Are

Bethel is a place where Everyone’s Welcome because one of the things we’ve learned is that Nobody’s Perfect, and with Jesus, we believe that Anything’s Possible


No matter where you’ve been or what you believe, you’re welcome here. Bethel meets every Sunday for services that clearly communicate the hope found through Jesus Christ. We use engaging music, compelling videos, straight-forward teaching, and many other elements to help people connect with a God who is incredibly passionate about you and your story. We hope you feel right at home here.

Our History

Bethel was launched by a small group of Swedish immigrants on November 12, 1892 as the Scandinavian Baptist church of Mankato. In December of 1928 the name was changed to Bethel Baptist Church.

Our church has a rich history supporting mission organizations and missionaries through prayer and finances. We are affiliated with CONVERGE Worldwide (formerly BGC) and partner with them in various mission endeavors around the world.

Our ministries include children, youth, young adults, adults, and worship.
