Bethel International United Methodist Church

We show up for Pride. Every year!

Bethel International UMC is a Reconciling congregation — fully affirming and fully welcoming of LGBTQIA+ people and their families. This June, join us as we worship, march, volunteer, and celebrate together.

BIUMC has been part of Columbus Pride for years — not as a gesture, but as a statement of who we are. We believe love is not a qualifier. We believe the table is big enough. We believe in showing up.

This year we're marching in the 45th annual Stonewall Pride Parade, hosting a festival booth, joining an affirming worship service, and closing out the weekend at Bat-n-Rouge. There's a place for you in all of it.
