Bethany Lutheran Church – West Branch, Iowa

This morning the air conditioning is not working in the sanctuary. Presently, it’s not too bad upstairs with the temperature at 73. As people gather and fill the space it will certainly warm up. We contemplated moving downstairs; however, that poses challenges trying to worship online. Thus, we will proceed upstairs and place some fans in the sanctuary to help circulate air. We apologize for this inconvenience and the TV will be set up in the Great Hall should you desire to sit downstairs.

We will worship indoors today given the wet conditions outdoors.
