Race and White Privilege

All are welcome to participate in this group that focuses on issues of race, systemic racism, and white privilege.  Meetings often involve guest speakers, dialogue amongst Belmonters, and other activities related to learning about and acting upon issues of race and white privilege.  

Neighborhood Housing Initiative

An offshoot of Mission Commission, there is a group of Belmonters from both congregations that is exploring ways that Belmont can support our neighborhood and those in need of quality, affordable housing.  

Prayer Shawl Ministry

Prayer shawls

A group of Belmonters knit shawls for the church and pray over them as they do so.  Pastors then distribute these prayer shawls to congregants as needed during times of crisis, before surgery, etc.  

Coffee Break

A small group meets in Belmont’s community room every Tuesday morning at 10:00 am for coffee, food, and fellowship.  This is open to both congregations and any guests they may invite.

Mennonite Central Committee (MCC)

Belmont is involved with and very supportive of the annual Michiana Mennonite Relief Sale in Goshen.  Every year we collect contributions for My Coins Count to be used to provide much needed drinking water to many parts of the world.

Belmont Counseling Ministry

The purpose of the Belmont Counseling Ministry is to offer a Christian counseling service for individuals, couples, and families from both congregations and from the wider community as well.  The focus of this ministry is to assist persons in their search for wholeness, healing, and reconciliation with God, self, and others with the support of a trained counselor.

A group of young persons, age 14 and up meet weekly prior to BNF worship for a time of supporting each other, learning money management skills, Bible study, and learning how to do church together.

Mary Beck Elementary School

Belmont has partnered with nearby Mary Beck Elementary School.  BMC’s Mary Beck Committee leads a variety of efforts throughout the school year to provide support to the teachers and administration, to work one-on-one with students who need help with reading or other areas of learning, provide daily snacks for students, and assist with any other area of need.

AA meets every Friday evening at 7 pm at Belmont in a fellowship and support group for one another.

  • A place for fellowship, fun, and connection with others at Belmont
  • A place to grow as disciples of Jesus through prayer, study, and practice of spiritual disciplines
  • Mission groups that serve together.
