ABOUT US

BETHEL PENTECOSTAL CHURCH

Bethel Pentecost Church is a Malayalam community-based Church, in Australian Capital “Canberra”. It was founded by Pastor. Wilson Philip, after God led him to start a fellowship in February 2020.

The Holy Spirit guided Pastor. Wilson, to lead a small prayer group. Interceding and praying for many at the Lords’ feet, which was later established into Church.

The fellowship is focused on Indian Malayalee communities for spiritually uplifting, declaring the Good News to exemplify Jesus Christ and to reach the unreached.

In the current times, many families and individuals are turning away from the Lord, even after knowing the truth. Many are still to be reached with the Gospel. Many are waiting for deliverance in their struggles. We believe that nothing is impossible with our God. So, we focus on these families and individuals to realize and guide them to remember Gods love and prepare them for the Kingdom of God.

Our church has youth meetings and Sunday school, where children and youth are trained on bible-based teachings. The Christian moral values and the teachings of Christ to the young and youth, to reach, teach, minister, and help them to be partakers for the expansion of Lords kingdom.
