Bethany Choir
The choir is an active participant in Bethany Lutheran’s worship service…helping with worship wherever we are needed and providing anthems three Sundays a month. Practice is generally every Wednesday at 6:00 p.m. The congregation enthusiastically supports the choir and we would welcome any one who would like to join us.
Evangelism Committee
Evangelism Committee, fondly referred to as the “E-team”, promotes fellowship and goodwill at church and in the community. A variety of activities include a float in the annual Grantsburg Parade, annual Men of Bethany Fishing Day, annual Bethany Women’s Retreat at Luther Point Bible Camp, and monthly (non-summer) family movie nights and hayrides. The committee has initiated giving out baptism blankets, each baby baptized at Bethany will receive a handmade crib-size blanket and any adults or older children that are baptized will receive a handmade lap blanket. The evangelism committee gives all new members at Bethany a basket full of homemade goodies, a copy of our Bethany cookbook, and information about WELCA, other committees, and the youth group. The E-team welcomes anyone interested in joining our committee; we meet at 7 pm the first Wednesday of each month at church.
Stewardship Committee
Mission statement of the Stewardship Committee is: To support the mission of the church by encouraging our members to live daily, giving as God gave to us, and caring for His creation.The goal of the Stewardship Committee is to continue to educate our committee and the members of Bethany regarding stewardship and care of God’s creation. Some of the activities the committee has been involved in are temple talks, articles contributed to Bethany’s monthly newsletter regarding stewardship and developed plans to present a stewardship play.
