 Bethlehem United Methodist Church, Franklin, TNBethlehem United Methodist Church is a historical congregation located in the heart of the Grassland community on the northern side of Franklin. We would love to have you come visit us for worship. On Sunday mornings, we offer two distinct worship services, with Sunday school classes for all ages at 9:30 AM. Our 8:15 AM service is a traditional, liturgical service and features the music of our Chancel choir. Our 10:45 AM service is a contemporary service that is led by a praise band.

This past Sunday after church we asked if some could stay and help move the desks, furniture, filing cabinets, and other large things out of the offices, Gathering Space, and Narthex so the carpet installers could get started Monday morning. There were so many people who pitched in to help that it really only took 15 minutes. I envisioned if only 10-15 people showed up it would take a couple of hours. With the 65+ people who came to help, though, it was quick work. As we laughed at how easy this potentially hard job was, I just thought about the potential that is here in the church. If we work together and all pitch in and do our part, then there is nothing that is impossible for us. I truly believe that. Sunday was a small example of the power of us all working together. It was a good reminder!
