Bethany Presbyterian Church of Tacoma

Bethany Presbyterian Church is a part of the Presbyterian Church (USA). In a nutshell, that means we are a connectional Christian body that is reformed, and always reforming.

Bethany is also proud to be a More Light Congregation, which means we fully welcome people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender into the life and ministry of the church

A (VERY) BRIEF HISTORY
Bethany Presbyterian Church was formally established in 1904 by the Olympia Presbytery. Prior to this we were  active as a mission church school starting in the 1890′s. From the very beginning we have been a congregation that seeks to serve our neighbors by pursuing tangible works of justice and by building up the common life in our city. That tradition is alive and well at Bethany today, leading us in new directions.
