Denomination: Baptist
Bethesda Baptist Church in Hutchinson, MN is a congregation of people who desire to learn what the perfect will of God is, so we may conform our lives to pleasing Him in all that we do. We hold to the preaching and teaching of God’s Word. We believe it is the ministry of the Church to be involved in discipleship and the equipping of the saints to carry out the great commission of our Lord (discipleship, evangelism, baptism).
We hold to a congregational church government, led by a pastor who has been qualified by ordination and reviewed by Biblical qualifications. The pastor is to be the shepherd of the local flock (congregation). He is responsible for the direction of the church in all areas. We believe the deacons to be an elected office of men to meet the needs of the congregation to give the pastor time to be in the Word.
As a church, it is up to each individual to carry out and live out a life that is consistent with Scripture. We also believe in reconciliation, restoration, forgiveness as a member repents and moves back to a Biblical position. We believe we are to be Christ’s ambassadors as we walk through this world.
