Bethel is an evangelical church that meets in Clydach, near Swansea. ‘Evangelical’ means that we believe the Bible’s message is true and it is good news. That message is life-transforming — the Bible tells us that God is real, that He loves the world, and that He wants not only to change our lives, but to completely transform them for the better. Because Christianity is about what God has done through His son Jesus, it’s not a message about rules and regulations, but a message of hope and of freedom.

Almost all our members live in Clydach or the surrounding villages of Craig-Cefn-Parc, Glais, Trebanos and Ynystawe. We come from many different backgrounds, but we’re united by that life-changing experience of Jesus.

There’s something for everyone at Bethel, and everyone is welcome. Why not come along to one of our Sunday services? We’d love to meet you.

Keith’s story

“I started to see I wasn't the nice guy I thought I was”

After I retired I missed spending time with people and thought I’d find some sort of community in a church. I was quite nervous about going by myself. Eventually, when I did go to Bethel, it was quite reassuring. There were even people on the front door to welcome me. Listening to the preacher came as a bit of a shock though. He said no-one was good enough to go to heaven. I thought that as long as your good deeds are more than your bad you’ll be fine and go to heaven but this wasn't what God said in the Bible. I started to see I wasn't the nice guy I thought I was. God was on my mind more than ever and I knew I needed him so I started to go to Bethel regularly. I often thought about the wrong things I’d done in my life and wondered if God really wanted me.
