About Us 

Croeso / Welcome

Bethania is a lively and friendly church community in Leeswood (Coed-Llai in Welsh) in North East Wales. Leeswood is a village of approximately 2,000 people located three miles south of Mold, close to the border with England.
  
The chapel we meet in is named after a village in Israel that Jesus often visited over 2000 years ago. In Biblical Hebrew, 'Bethania' means ‘house of the poor’.
 
Jesus said: "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:3)
 
Over the years, an important Bible verse for us has been:
 
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11)
 
We have seen the plans of the Lord, Jesus Christ, work out in our lives as individuals and as a Church and want others to know him as we do.
 
 
Our Vision
To see the kingdom of heaven worked out in our lives and for the overflow of God’s mercy and grace bring peace, kindness and compassion into the community at large.
 
“In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16)
 
Our Mission
To bring the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all those who recognise they are poor in spirit.
 
"The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the good news of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing their way into it.” (Luke 16:16)
 
Our Values
To be people who are filled with the Holy Spirit and, therefore, live in accordance with Christ’s purposes for us.
 
“For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” (Ephesians 2:10)
