Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran Church

About this church

Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran Church worships Sundays at 9:00 a.m. in Brainerd, with both in-person and livestream participation. Communion is served on first through third Sundays. From September through May, an additional Wednesday service begins at 6:20 p.m., with Communion following the same first-through-third-Sunday weekly cycle. The published pattern gives visitors a clear choice between Sunday morning and a seasonal midweek gathering.

Sunday School, confirmation, first Communion, youth groups, bell choir, mission trips, prayer groups, small groups, and creation-care work extend formation across ages. The congregation’s mission describes Christians called by the Holy Spirit into compassionate community and public faith through their daily vocations. Youth bell choir rehearses after Sunday School, linking education and music within the morning. First-time guests can join the livestream before attending in person and select an early-month Sunday when Communion is desired. Families should verify Sunday School and confirmation dates, while Wednesday visitors need to remember that the 6:20 service pauses outside September through May.
