Join us as we celebrate Bethel A.M.E and look at a critical moment in Bethel’s journey and its role in the Black Civil Rights movement then and now.

From its founding in 1836 to its continuing impact today, Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church has long held and maintained its position as an influential and boundary-breaking institution located in Indianapolis. After being burned in the 19th century and consistently harassed throughout its history, Bethel has exhibited resilience and a commitment to the African-American Community and its well-being.
