About Bethel Reformed
Bethel Reformed Church was organized on April 26, 1891 by request of twenty persons to Classis of Iowa (even though we are in Minnesota). Bethel Reformed is the oldest Reformed congregation in southwest Minnesota. The name Bethel, House of God, was selected before the church was built in 1891. Bethel has been home to seventeen pastors in its 126 year history. The current sanctuary was dedicated on June 22, 1997. Bethel Reformed Church consists of about one hundred believers led by a consistory of eight members.
We are seeking to grow in our faith in Jesus Christ and to experience His redemption power,
sharing that message through God's Word and by being the hands and feet of Jesus
in the greater community and in the church.
"Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father."

The Leota Area Youth Program has received tremendous support from both churches and the community. The Wednesday night program now brings in about 50-60 kids from Leota and neighboring communities in grades K-12 led by adults from both congregations in bible study and fellowship.
