Adult Ministries
Find your place at Bethel by connecting with an adult ministry. Our main objective is to equip you to become a minister in your sphere of influence.
Learn about the culture at Bethel by watching a series of videos - CLICK HERE. After a while, become a member. It’s not necessary, but our Firm Foundations class is GOOD for all believers - whatever stage you’re in on your journey. Join a Small Group! It’s a venue to strengthen the gifts God has given you, for you to grow in your knowledge of Him, and to connect with other Bethelites.
Want to experience more of Bethel? Check our calendar. Introduce yourself to our DISTRICT PASTORS and others in your community. Wondering about individual ministries? See below. We’d love to get to know YOU!

Breakfast & Bread is a time of fellowship, food, fun, and the word. B&B meets quarterly: May 11, Aug. 17, and Nov. 16, 2024, at 10am in The Link. Sign-up is required. Cost is $10. Go to the Events page a couple of weeks before the event to register. For more info about our ladies, email them HERE.
A Nursing Mothers Room is available for moms during our Sunday morning services. Ask an usher to direct you. We also invite families to go to the Courtyard Room during the service for those who prefer to stay together. Bring some toys, crayons, and enjoy the space for your wiggly ones. In BOTH rooms the service is streamed on large TV’s so you don’t miss anything
Men
Men have been given an awesome responsibility. At Bethel we feel it’s important as men to “Unite, Equip, Serve” and be the leaders we are called to be in our families, communities & places of work. Connect with your District Pastor to see what’s going on in your community. OR come to the Men’s Bible Study at 6am in The Link - every Wednesday.
Prophetic Ministry
Pure Streams is Bethel Christian Fellowship’s Prophetic Ministry which provides personal prophecy, words of comfort, edification and exhortation in accordance with the Scriptures found in I Corinthians 14:3.
Pure Streams offers personal prophecy to individuals and married couples. Our Ministers are trained, have pursued the prophetic gifts, and are excited to bring hope, life, and encouragement to those they minister to. God loves to inspire His kids like the loving Father He is. To participate, sign up near the sound booth in the sanctuary on the last Sunday of the month, before or immediately after that service. Then join us in the Aviv Gallery. To connect with that ministry, you can email info@bethelcf.com.
For those who cannot attend Bethel the last Sunday of the month, there is an online option. We strongly recommend in-person ministry if possible, but understand that some are not available. Pure Streams’ Online Ministry occurs on the last Tuesday evening of each month (except December). To be placed on the schedule for the online ministry team, signup HERE. To connect with the Pure Streams Prophetic Ministry Online Team, email PureStreamsProph@gmail.com.
Small Groups
We have several small groups that gather around Rochester, and new groups are always forming. Or are you interested in hosting a small group? You can host one at Bethel, in a cafe…anywhere if you don’t have space at home. Small groups give adults the opportunity to develop deeper relationships and a genuine sense of family belonging. Email info@bethelcf.com for more information.
Sozo
Bethel Inner Healing (SOZO) Ministry - Trained team members facilitate this unique experience for individuals to receive healing, enabling them to walk in the destiny to which they have been called. Bethel Inner Healing (SOZO) Ministry is not counseling or therapy. It is based on biblical principles and prayer where team members empower individuals to hear directly from the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. For more info, contact bethelcfsozo@gmail.com.

Worship Team
Passion. Excellence. Community: A Different Approach to “Church Music”
Our worship bands do more than play on Sunday morning. We send out teams to lead events, support other churches and conduct training. This kind of vision cannot be fulfilled by one band: it takes a community. That’s why this isn’t every player’s gig, but it might be yours. Email info@bethelcf.com for more information.
Young Adults
Bethel’s Young Adults range from ages 18 – 30. They gather for workshops, bible studies, social events and more. Their Small Group is at 6:30pm each Wednesday at Bethel. To connect, email info@bethelcf.com.
