Worship and Music
Bethlehem currently offers two different worship experiences. Regularly, we offer Sunday morning and Wednesday evening services following the Lutheran Book of Worship (LBW). These services are enhanced by choir as well as vocal and instrumental soloists. One Sunday each month, usually the second Sunday, we offer a service lead by our Praise Team, a group consisting of acoustic guitars, bass, piano and singers.
All are invited to join in the music ministry whether as a soloist or a group participant; vocalist or instrumentalist. Please contact the church office (608-742-8502), or come talk with us before or after worship.
