WHO'S WHO AT BETHLEHEM

The Niderno family is new to the Bethlehem family.  Here is Beth, Aaron, and Aiden Niderno.  Beth has been a member of the church.  Aaron and Aiden are the new additions.  Now you tell me, is that not a cute baby?  He is beautiful.  We wish the family all the best in the future here at Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran Church.

The Shawl Ministry has begun! We will meet  monthly, on the fourth Tuesday of each month at 7:15 PM. The choice of color, style and techniques will vary with each creation.  Some knit, some crochet and some will make fleece blanket/shawls.  Some are proficient and some have never done needlework.  The main focus will be creating a prayerfully created sign of God's love and an outreach ministry of this congregation to each other and to the community.  We have a lot to decide yet.  We invite anyone who has any interest to join us at the monthly meeting at the church. Please share this with anyone you think might have an interest.

MUSIC NOTES BY MEG SMITH, MINISTER OF MUSIC

     Bethlehem has a volunteer choir of about a dozen voices that offers a short but substantial anthem each Sunday.  Rehearsals are 7:30-9:00 on Wednesday evenings, and 9:30-10:00 warm-up on Sunday mornings.  For further information, please contact Minister of Music Meg Smith (mcapsmith@gmail.com) or through the church phone, 267-4272 ext. #3.

        Bethlehem's worship is accompanied by a pipe organ of two manuals and 13 stops.  Its action mixes both tracker and electro-pneumatic technology.  The Minister of Music, Meg Smith, is a Colleague of the American Guild of Organists and seeks to offer organ voluntaries of good quality, suited to the worship, on a weekly basis.

    Choir rehearsals will begin again after the summer lull on Wednesday, September 5, 2007 at 7:30 pm.  Also, on September 30, 2007 at 12 pm there will be a special choir workshop conducted by Bert Landman.
