Bethel Temple began in 1918 as a small prayer group in the home of Dr. and Mrs. R.J. Turner . From the prayer meetings came a Sunday School, and from that, a church. In 1924 the opera house on Base Street was purchased by the assembly and named Bethel (House of God). In October of 1936 the building was almost completely destroyed by fire, with only the exterior walls left standing. The church met in the local theater until the building was restored and rededicated on Easter Sunday of 1937. As the ministry has grown, several additions have been made to the existing brick structure, including a basement under the original building, hand dug by men in the congregation. With ever increasing growth, more additions are planned and the sanctuary is undergoing a beautiful remodeling. The present pastor is Rev. Philip Myers, who is in his eleventh year at Bethel Temple.
