Over 120 years of faithfulness — from a small chapel in Springfield to a thriving community in Agawam.
Mabel Weaver built Peace Chapel at the corner of Springfield and Armory Streets in Springfield. Rev. A. B. Simpson, founder of the Christian and Missionary Alliance, dedicated it to the Lord's work.
Bethany Fellowship Chapel became affiliated with the New England District of the Assemblies of God.
The church became incorporated under the name of Bethany Pentecostal Church. In 1954 the name changed to Bethany Assembly of God.
The congregation voted to purchase fifty-one acres. Ground was broken November 8, 1980, and the first service was held Easter Sunday, April 3, 1983.
A second building project began focusing on youth and children. Ground was broken March 16, 1997 and dedicated Easter Sunday, April 12, 1998.
Bethany Assembly of God completed a major renovation of its sanctuary and lobby, modernizing 20,000 square feet of space to serve a growing congregation. This new season of growth included a full sanctuary renovation, upgraded technology, and a new café and lounge area.
