Bethel United Methodist Church

About this church

Bethel United Methodist Church in Lewes, Delaware, gathers for worship on Sunday mornings at 8:00, 9:15, and 11:00. The 8:00 and 11:00 services are traditional Methodist services in the historic sanctuary, built around hymns and liturgy, while the 9:15 service is contemporary, led by a praise band in the Fellowship Hall. The sermon is the same at all three, and a service runs about an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes. The 9:15 and 11:00 services are livestreamed, and the fellowship hall is open for coffee before and after worship. The church sits next to Beebe Hospital.

Children's ministry includes a nursery with a video monitor, Sunday School for pre-K through 8th grade during the 9:15 service, two children's choirs, and Vacation Bible School. Youth in grades 6 through 12 meet on Sunday evenings through Fuel Student Ministries, and a young adult group serves ages 18 to 25. Other ways to get involved include music, missions, small groups, and food ministries. Parking is available on the street, in small lots at 4th and Market Streets and 4th and Chestnut Streets, and in a nearby nursing school lot on Sundays. Dress ranges from casual to dressier.
