Church Leaders

Here is a list of some of the church leaders at Bethel.

Board of Governors

Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and the Canadian Council of Christian Charities (CCCC) require that all registered charities, including churches, have a Board to oversee the operation.  Bethel Evangelical Missionary Church (Bethel) has a Board of Governors (BOG). 
Here at Bethel, BOG consists of 5 to a maximum of 8 church members. 
The Board bears the ultimate accountability for the Church organization and activities.  Basically BOG offers spiritual guidance to all areas of the church.  Bethel has Ministry Teams such as Worship/Celebration, Personal Care & Crisis, Christian Education, Missions, Property and Finance that provide the day to day guidance for church activities.  BOG oversees the Ministry Teams on a longer term basis and periodically meets with Team Coordinators for review of their Ministry area.  The Treasurer keeps the BOG informed of the financial health of Bethel through the regular Financial Statements.

Personal Crisis and Care
Carol Ruland

When we hear of a need in the body or community we try to come along side to help in whatever way we can. It could be meals, shopping, sitting with someone to give the caregiver a break, car rides to appointments, or friendly visits. Every need is confidential.
Contact Carol Ruland at (519) 793-3715 or the church office if you need assistance.
