Bethlehem Covenant Church

About this church

Bethlehem Covenant Church in Minneapolis gathers Sundays at 10:00 a.m. in person and online, with coffee and conversation after worship. The congregation’s roots reach to a Swedish Sunday school organized in Peter Edquist’s home in 1913. Twenty-six members formally organized the church on December 28, 1922, and the present chapter of its building story began in 1942. Those milestones give the neighborhood congregation an identifiable history while its livestream makes the current service accessible before a first visit.

Children’s ministry uses screened volunteers and age-based groups. Children ages three through five and those in kindergarten through fifth grade begin with the congregation for singing, then are dismissed to their own activities; nursery care supports younger children. Students in grades six through twelve gather on Wednesdays, with current times and events maintained on the youth page. Missionary support and local service provide outward-facing avenues for adults. Bethlehem Covenant may suit someone who wants one all-church worship hour, children included at the beginning, and an unhurried coffee time afterward. Its century-long story, family transition within worship, and online option distinguish it from a bare directory label.
