Welcome to Bethesda Presbyterian Church!

We are glad you have connected to us through our website. Our Mission: Love In Action! It’s that simple. At Bethesda Presbyterian Church, we believe prayerful action – as a church and in our daily lives - is the way of the gospel. Join us in our beautiful Sanctuary or on Zoom for our uniquely "big small church" experience!

October 5: An Active Faith

A mustard seed faith: it's all we are given - and need. From there, to know what we believe, let us see what we do.
Luke 17:5-10

Sunday, October 12, 10:00 AM Sanctuary & Zoom "The Gratitude of the Immigrant"

Midst the ICE storm swirling 'round us, perhaps it's a good time to lift up our most vulnerable immigrants - how they are often treated as lepers - and what we can all learn from their gratitude in being welcomed. Luke 17:11-19.

Directions & Parking for Bethesda Presbyterian Church

 

GPS ADDRESS. Put in 5080 Wilson Lane to arrive at our Sanctuary bell tower door! We are located near Bethesda’s heart, one block from Old Georgetown Road.

IMPORTANT PARKING NOTES. Here are two good options: (1) spaces marked for the church at 7611 Clarendon Road, & (2) freebie parking at the Cordell-St. Elmo public garage two blocks away. There is limited street parking space Sunday mornings - due to the fabulous Bethesda Central Farmers Market next door and an AA meeting at The Del Ray Club on our church’s site.

WE ARE CONVENIENT TO THE BETHESDA METRO STATION (Red Line) - a 1/3 mile stroll! Zoom in on the map to the left. The Metro station is found in the middle of the word “Bethesda”. Saunter up Hwy 187/Old Georgetown Rd to Hwy 188/Wilson Lane - and take a left . We are then one block on the left, just past the Farmers Market.
