We are the body of Christ saved by the blood of Jesus who is raised in Bethlehem not by chance, but by the will of God to be a testimony for the Gospel for all.
Short History
In Sep 1999 a group of 15 people, started Bible study under the leadership of Pastor Nihad Salman. The group met at a conference hall in Bethlehem hotel. In one year time the number increased to 50 members.
Afterwards the group started meeting in the Chapel of Bethlehem Bible College.
Since 2004, we rented a place on the main street of Bethlehem under the name Immanuel Evangelical church.
Now we are serving more than 60 families and individuals, about 250 people. The church already planted two other churches in Ramleh and Haifa.
Since 2005, the church opened the first Christian bookshop in the West Bank and since January 2008 another Christian bookshop was opened in Haifa.
In the last 8 years we have seen the God to raising the body of Christ in Bethlehem and beyond. It is only by His grace that we are experiencing growth.
