Bethel Christian Reformed Church began in 1962 as the daughter church of First CRC in Waupun, Wisconsin. First CRC was experiencing a "baby boom" and several young families began prayerfully considering whether God was calling them to start a new church. Within months they had begun the process, and began meeting in the school gymnasium, where they worshipped for two years until the church building was finished. We are grateful to those individuals who had the vision to step out in faith. Our relationship with First CRC is still close, and we share several ministries together.
