BIG BETHEL MISSION, VISION AND VALUES

Mission

The mission of Big Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church is to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ and to communicate to the world through preaching, teaching, evangelizing, worshipping, and stewardship that “Jesus Saves.”

Vision

“We are a spirit-filled fellowship engaging in fervent worship, bible-based teaching and preaching, and compassionate missions driven to be the miracle in downtown Atlanta.”

Values Statement

Jesus was always doing his Father’s business. He was actively engaged in ministry, as were the people who followed Him. Jesus did not have “pew disciples” the way we have “pew members” in today’s church. Moving from membership to discipleship means that we must all commit ourselves to being involved in meeting needs.
We encourage you to take seriously the command that we are to be doers of the word by actively ministering to others. There are over forty ministries at Big Bethel.  There is something for everyone to do. Your gifts and talents are vital to ensuring that we meet needs.  As you look through this section, ask yourself, “How can I find my space in the ministry?" Once you have determined how you would like to use your gifts, talents, and interests in Christian service, contact the coordinator of that ministry or the church office for additional information.
