Bethlehem Leadership Unit (B.L.U.)
B.L.U. is a leadership development program that challenges high school students (9th - 12th grade) to come up with ways to improve their community, city, and even other parts of the country!
Community Connection initiatives
The purpose of the Bethlehem Center’s Community Connection initiatives are to provide support for adults in order to help families in the areas of economic empowerment, leadership development, spiritual development, and connection to resources.
Bethlehem Sports Program
Our new sports program allows youth in preschool and middle school to be a part of a league that grows together and learns to trust and depend on one another. The program offers basketball and volleyball with hopes to offer more sports by Spring 2019. We also partners with local camps, such as the Alvin Kamara Football Camp, to give our youth as many positive enriching experiences as possible.
