Bethel Church of Christ in rural Ada will celebrate their 150th anniversary on Sunday, Sept. 15.
Bethel was formed when William Park donated land to a group of Disciples of Christ Christians in 1869 and a church building was erected on what is now County Road 304 and Township Road 56.
In 1913 a new building was built and the original one room building was torn down. Today this building still serves as part of the existing worship center and classroom space downstairs.
