About Us

Bethel Church

History & Hope

Bethel Church is affiliated with the PAOC. Founded in September 27, 1942, Bethel has always had a heart to see people come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior and be empowered by the Holy Spirit. We welcome not only all who wish to know Jesus and grow in their understanding of who He is but also those who are curious and searching. We desire to be a safe place as people grow in their understanding of God. We value community over individualism and as such desire be a light by serving our neighbors, co-workers and family. Our hope is to put our community of Quesnel before ourselves so that Jesus may be glorified.
To do so we seek to give our congregation every opportunity to have life change and continual growth over one time experiences and comfort. We do this because we know that people who have their lives changed by God desire others to also experience His life changing presence. We are a vibrant church with kids, youth, young adult, family programs and care groups. Whatever your age or needs there is someway for you to connect if you desire.

THE Pastors

Pastor Monte Harrop
Lead PAstor

"Monte has called Quesnel home since 2005, serving for 10 years as Youth Pastor and 6 years as Lead Pastor. Having grown up in the Cariboo, Monte has always had a heart for the region. He desires to see people encounter the love of Jesus Christ and mature as disciples. When not in the office you are most likely to find Monte doing one of three things, riding his motorcycle, fishing or hiking locally with his dog.

Pastor Mathew Nielsen
YOuth PAstor

"Mathew loves being in Quesnel with his wife Hannah. Their heart is to help everyone grow vibrant relationships with the real, living Jesus! If you want to connect with Mathew he is a fan of hiking, hanging out, and hearing what you think about Jesus, because he is bananas about that guy! "

Both of our Pastors love people and if you would like to connect with one or both of them feel free to contact the church office to book an appointment.
