Bethel Outreach Ministries
Our Pastor
Our Pastor here at Bethel Outreach Ministries is the lovely Pastor Stephanie Mason. Pastor Stephanie became a faithful follower of Christ at a young age. It was in June of 2007, that the Lord sent Pastor Stephanie to walk and learn up under the leadership of Pastors Grant & Gladys Johnson. During that time she learned how to do deliverance, to hear God, and to lead God's people. One night, the Lord showed Pastor Stephanie in a dream that she was carrying a baby, and that the baby will be brought up front. The baby she was carrying was Bethel Outreach Ministries!! In June of 2010, the Lord ordained her as a minister; she began to start her ministry in preaching and teaching God's people the heart of God. In this process, she was ministering in nursing homes and senior citizen homes feeding the people spiritual words as well as natural food. In October of 2010, she was ordained as Pastor and God allowed her to open a youth center. This was a place where she ministered to the youth with counseling, mentoring, and fellowship in a Godly manner. In October 2014, the Lord blessed the church to locate where the word of God continues to move and grow people up spiritually in him. Pastor Stephanie loves God, and will do anything to see his ministry grow. She never stops working because she knows that her reward in heaven will be great so she must keep on pushing. Pastor Stephanie has taught us how to forgive, love who you are, fight the devil, and many more things. She will continue to teach God's love until it's her time to go home and be with him.
Church History
"We're An Army Rising Up."
Bethel Outreach Ministries was birthed through faith, perseverance, and obedience to God. When Apostle Gladys Johnson fell ill, she and her husband, Pastor Grant Johnson, relocated to Dallas, Texas. In 2010, Pastor Stephanie completed her ministerial training and was ordained to continue the work of the ministry. In June 2010, the church launched a youth ministry at 4449 S. Division in Wyoming, Michigan. During that season, the church held services, mentoring programs, transportation assistance, group sessions, field trips, dinners, plays, and sports activities. Due to limited support, the building remained open for one year. However, the mission continued. The church carried the Word of God into the community — including Pine Oaks Apartments — providing outreach, ministry, and hot meals to those in need. In October 2014, Bethel Outreach Ministries relocated to 154 36th Street in Wyoming, Michigan, where the ministry continued to grow and impact lives. Today, we are blessed to worship and serve at our current home: 525 Cheshire Drive NE, Grand Rapids, Michigan 49505. From Division to 36th Street to Cheshire Drive, God has been faithful through every season. At Bethel Outreach Ministries, we are fighters. We never give up. With God on our side, we overcome every obstacle. We are Bethel Outreach Ministries — An Army Rising Up!
