Serve.

To be a Thresher is to be something greater than yourself. — Brian Skinner, ’12

Whether through living and studying together or participating in activities together, students come to know and care for each other. At Bethel, you will be encouraged to integrate faith and learning, empowering you to view questions and dilemmas from multiple perspectives. You also will have regular opportunities to give of yourself to serve others – on campus, in the community and around the globe – in order to strengthen your spiritual life.

I love the community here at Bethel. I knew I’d have great classes, but I never thought I would stumble upon a whole new family when I came to college. You can count on everyone to lend a helping hand. — Taylor McCabe-Juhnke, ’12
