Bethesda Bookshop

Dress Code: However you dress, you will always be welcome at Bethesda; generally people dress up a bit with jackets, ties, or dresses, though there is no dress code and things tend to be more casual in the summer.

Service Format: The 8:00 a.m. service lasts 40 minutes without music, the 9:00 a.m. service includes a quartet and runs about 50 minutes, and the 11:00 a.m. service (or 10:00 a.m. in summer) features a full choir and lasts approximately an hour and ten minutes, all including Holy Eucharist and sermon.

Visitor Tips: You can remain anonymous or fill out a Visitor's Card in the pews; Bethesda Ambassadors wearing blue ribbons are available before or after the service to answer questions. All baptized Christians are welcome to receive Communion, or you may cross your arms to receive a blessing instead.
