The schedule for Bethel services was altered during the period of the Covid-19 virus
pandemic. All services at the church were discontinued, following UMC guidance, after March 22,
2020. A format was established for providing an online worship service of recorded and text
messages each week. On May 3,2020 Bethel began "open-air" live services at the church following
guidelines for "social distancing" and on May 31,2020, Pentecost Sunday, began a live 11:00 AM
Sunday worship service inside the church under
Bethel's COVID-19 Policy, developed from the CDC guidelines for church gatherings. These online services, using the same format and content as the live service, continued to be produced even after the COVID restrictions were completely removed.
