ABOUT US

We are Bethesda Hope Church.

A Christ-centered community raising up disciples among the nations in Tbilisi, Georgia.

OUR STORY

Bethesda Hope Church was born in the heart of Tbilisi, Georgia — a city where young people from across the globe come to study medicine, pursue their dreams, and search for meaning.

Most of our members are medical students from India, along with young people from Pakistan, Africa, and other nations. We come from different cultures, speak different languages, and carry different stories — but we are united in one thing: the love of Jesus Christ.

Our church is not just a place to attend on Sundays. It is a community where people encounter Jesus, discover their identity as children of God, grow together through the messy and beautiful process of community life, and are sent out as witnesses wherever they go.
