Hello Bethany Family, We hope this email finds you all doing well. As you know, we are going through some changes here at Bethany. We will do our best to keep you updated as we can. This Sunday, worship will be lead by Kevin Reich with Josh Miller playing organ. The church office will be open from 1-4:30pm Tuesday through Friday. During our time of transition we ask for your understanding and prayers as we learn to fill multiple job duties. A voice mail can be left after hours. If its an emergency please contact Cheryl at 218-689-2093, or Sherry at 218-689-6943, or Sue at 218-689-7680. An open house honoring Marie Seeger's 100th birthday will be held at her farm on August 8 from 11:00am to 2:00pm. All members of Bethany are invited for lunch and refreshments. After attending Marie's party, please come to Bethany to celebrate Pastor's retirement. It will start at 2:00pm with a program starting at 2:30. There will be a blood drive at Bethany on Wednesday, August 11from 11:30-6:30. There is currently a nationwide shortage so if you can please consider donating by contacting Patty Olson at 507-995-9484. Vacation Bible School has been scheduled for August 9-12, 2021. A meal will be served at 5:30pm each night with activities from 6:00-8:00pm. Please register your kids! We need to plan for enough helpers. And again, thank you for all the generous donations of food for all the funerals we've had. We have a large collection of your dishes her at Bethany. Please come and get them. Please continue to email Sherry at bethanylutheranrlf.com. with any information needed. Thank you, Vicki Duden |
