Our Mission: Be People Who Seek God in the Mountains and the Valleys At Bethlehem Youth Ministry, we believe God meets us in every season of life—the highs and the lows. Our hope is that students learn to seek God no matter what circumstances they’re facing. Through our own experiences of God’s faithfulness, we encourage one another that God promises to be present and guide us through all of life’s moments.
