Worship and Weather November 25

Posted on November 25, 2018 by Pastor
Good morning!
I have had a couple inquires about whether or not worship is still on for this morning and the answer is yes. However, as always if conditions deteriorate please use your judgement on whether or not to venture out. Your safety is always important!
If conditions do deteriorate significantly throughout the day and the wind picks up, I suspect we may cancel the Community Dinner at Bethany this evening. Another email will be sent and notice will be placed on our website and reported to KGAN (Channel 2) if we do make that decision.
Thanks and stay safe!
Pastor Chad

Angel Tree 2018

Posted on November 21, 2018 by Pastor
Please see the note below from Jeni Schiele.
We have been given 5 families this year from WBCSD for the Angel Tree project.  We will be using an online signup again this year to get the info out in time for Black Friday shopping.
Please return wrapped and labeled gifts (letter and age) to Bethany by December 5, 2018.
You can write checks to WBCSD to be put toward lunch and milk accounts in need.  Feel free to place those in my mailbox or take them to school directly.
You may also write checks to Bethany to be used for shopping for items that remain in the signup at the end.  Please put Angel Tree in the memo and place them in the offering.
I have included all size and like info that I received in the signup. To be taken to the online signup please click here.
Thanks for all you do in this ministry.
Sincerely,
Jeni Schiele

God’s work, Our Hands 2018

Posted on September 10, 2018 by Pastor

We had an awesome day yesterday for God’s work, Our hands. We gathered for breakfast and worship and then were sent to do God’s work. We made personal care kits for Lutheran World Relief, quilts for various places and people, work around the church property, and several projects at the West Branch Library such as grounds work, painting exterior window trim, and painting of a meeting room inside used my many people and groups in our community. It was a great day! Here are some photos of the day.
