We are Bethany Church, Manchester, a local Church in the heart of the community in Gatley, Stockport

When Jesus was walking the earth ‘Bethany’ was the place where he would go to hang out with his friends, kick back and relax. It was the place he would talk to them, laugh with them, eat, have fun, and sometimes cry with them. It was a place of acceptance and belonging. 

We want Bethany in Gatley, Stockport,  to be a place like that. A place where we can be ourselves, meet with others, take time out and try to make sense of the world we live in and our purpose in it.

We have loads going on during the week, check out the rest of our website.

Hope to see you soon, we are saving a seat for you…

Everyone is welcome at our Sunday services. Whether you’ve never been to church before, you’re new to the area or you’re looking for a church to call home, come and join us to see what we’re all about.

We believe that the Bible, God’s living word, is the foundation for our lives. Here at Bethany Church, Manchester, we want to see people experience the transformational power of the Bible.

God speaks to us through his word and we are passionate about equipping people to hear from God. With the Bible flowing through our sermons, life group meetings, courses and events, we create space for you to ask questions, learn more and grow.

For us, church isn’t the building, it’s the people. Church isn’t just about Sundays, it’s about how we live every day. Bethany Church, Stockport, is a place to belong and to find new life and purpose through God’s love. We are on a journey to becoming the best version of ourselves that we can be — and you’re invited.
