welcome!

Bethlehem Lutheran Church is a growing congregation of the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod.  Our church is committed to God, the Holy Scriptures and fellowship within our community.

We are a congregation with a past rich in tradition, yet very much open to the needs of our community.  Since the fall of 1986, Bethlehem has been committed to reaching the un-churched of our community with the message of Jesus Christ.

It is exciting to see how God has blessed our ministry over the years, especially as we look confidently into the future knowing He will continue to bless us as we remain faithful to Him.

Please feel free to contact the church office if you have any questions or comments about Bethlehem or if you have any personal concerns you would like to discuss with a pastor.

God’s blessings to you as you seek to know and serve Him!
