About Our Directory
Our invite-only, opt-in directory is hosted on the Church Center app.
We are excited to offer this feature to anyone who considers Bethany Bible Church as their home. We encourage you to add a profile photo and connect with others in the community.
Your information will remain private until you choose to share it. You can change your privacy settings or opt-out of the directory at any time.
