Posted on August 18, 2014 by Pastor


Plan to join us for Rally Sunday on September 14 as we kick-off another year of education at Bethany.  It will be a great day starting with worship at 9:00 a.m.  We will be installing all teachers for the upcoming year during that service.  There will be a potluck following worship.  Please see the sign-up sheet on the glass doors to the Great Hall.  Also, there will be other fun activities for the youth so please plan on attending.  A schedule of the upcoming Sunday school year can be found by clicking here.

Organist Update

Posted on July 21, 2014 by Pastor

This Sunday, August 27, we will wish farewell and Godspeed to our organist Elizabeth Gotlund. She has been a wonderful gift from God and has enriched our worship experience. Please come and thank Elizabeth and wish her well on her future.

With that said, God has once again been faithful to us and has lifted up another leader to assist us musically in worship. We welcome Aura Strohschein as our new organist. Aura’s first Sunday will be August 10. Praise be to God!
