A LITTLE MORE ABOUT US

Our History
Established in 1977, St. Theodore’s is an active Episcopal congregation located in beautiful Bella Vista, Arkansas. While we are situated in what was once a retirement community, today St. Theodore’s is the church home to a diverse and growing population of young professionals, families and retirees in one of the most livable regions of the country.

Christian Education
St. Theodore’s offers Sunday School classes at 9:15 a.m. for all ages through our tireless Christian Education volunteers. In addition to classes for children and youth, we offer an adult Christian formation class, Adult Forum, on Sunday mornings as well as other adult groups during the week.

Outreach
St. Theodore’s has long been known in the Bella Vista community for our Outreach efforts. From the beginning of our formation in 1977, we have pursued an intentional focus on serving the people of Benton County. We were a part of the formation and continuing operation of Helping Hands Food and Clothing Center, The NW Arkansas Children’s Shelter, The Benton County Women’s Shelter, Sharing and Caring, and most recently the monthly worship service at the Northwest Women’s Community Correctional Center.
