Agape Center in Richert House

Agape Center in Richert House, dedicated to campus ministries, is located next to the Fine Arts Center on College Avenue. The house originally was home of Bethel’s legendary math professor, David H. “Uncle Davy” Richert, who taught at Bethel from 1906-56. Since then, it served as faculty housing, briefly hosted the Kansas Institute for Peace and Conflict Resolution and most recently provided offices for retired faculty. The space was renovated in 2009 with the help of Bethel College Mennonite Church, and today students use the space as a gathering place for Bible studies, prayer time and discussions.
