Pastor Todd Smith

Email:   pastor@bethel-md.org

Todd Smith has been the pastor of Bethel Presbyterian Church since the Spring of 2015.  He has been active in ordained and non-ordained ministry since 1987. His view on ministry is one that follows the greatest commandment, which is “To love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.”  Another is nearly equal to it, “To love your neighbor as yourself.”  We only know what it is to fully love God if we can love our neighbor unconditionally and in our love for God we find the strength to love our neighbor. Our neighbor, according to scripture, includes those most easy for us to love to those we find it almost impossible to love. At Bethel, you will find a community committed to this kind of unconditional love.  If you have been sitting in our pews for just a few weeks to many decades, you will find God’s love for you in this faith community.
