Bethany United Methodist Church is a growing and dynamic congregation. Its roots date to the 1800s, but more recent history has involved three area churches combining under one roof along Brookside Road in 1967. Membership has exploded, requiring expansion in 2009 to include a Catasauqua campus. The most recent excitement involved groundbreaking early in 2010 on an additional campus. Site completion is expected in December 2012. Completion will bring the number of campuses to three.
