Bethany United Methodist Church

About this church

Bethany United Methodist Church in San Francisco's Noe Valley holds Sunday worship at 10:45 a.m. at 1270 Sanchez Street, at the corner of Sanchez and Clipper, with the service also available online. Worship is casual, with no dress code, and includes singing, an open prayer time for spoken joys and concerns, a short sermon of about twelve to fifteen minutes, music from the choir, and an offering. Communion is shared on the first Sunday of each month. Fellowship with food and conversation follows in the sanctuary, or on Zoom for those joining online.

The congregation formed in 1965 from two older Methodist churches and is part of the United Methodist Church. Regular offerings include a Labyrinth Walk with contemplative music on the first Friday of the month at 7 p.m., a monthly bagged-lunch assembly for unhoused neighbors after Sunday worship, handbell music, and seasonal events such as Holy Week services and a neighborhood block party. The building is also available for rental. For getting there, the J Muni line stops one block away, 24th and Mission BART is about 0.7 miles off, and street parking is limited, with two reserved accessibility spaces.
