Bethany Lutheran Church

About this church

Bethany Lutheran Church is an ELCA congregation in Minden centered on worship, Bible study, service, and Christian community. Its website emphasizes hope in Jesus Christ, compassion for neighbors, and support for ministry locally and through the wider denomination. Opportunities range from children’s formation and shared meals to a prayer-shawl ministry that gives handmade shawls to people facing illness, bereavement, or baptismal milestones.

Bethany offers two Sunday services: “Wake Up and Praise” worship at 8:30 a.m. and blended-traditional worship at 10:30. The visitor page also publishes a summer-only Saturday service at 7:00 p.m. from June through August, so it should not be assumed during the rest of the year. Church Club for children in prekindergarten through sixth grade meets Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. from October through Lent, followed by a family supper at 6:00; both are seasonal. The prayer-shawl group gathers on the second Saturday of each month to pray, knit or crochet, and share fellowship. First-time visitors should use the recurring Sunday services as the dependable year-round options and consult the full calendar before attending a seasonal Wednesday or Saturday program.
