Siburgs get a Bethany-style sendoff on Sunday

Trish and Dave Siburg were officially sent off on Sunday with a cake reception following worship. They are heading to Nebraska to be near a son, daughter-in-law and new granddaughter. Bethany will miss the Siburgs. Trish played piano for Saturday-night worship services. Both Trish and Dave sang in the choir. We will them blessings in this new chapter in their lives. Read Pastor Paul Stumme-Diers's column on the Siburgs under the "Us" tab.

Quilts and baby kits boxed for shipping

 Good Wednesday to you,

Bethany quilters and other volunteers boxed 102 quilts and 53 baby kits on Tuesday, and the boxes now are bound for Lutheran World Relief. Ultimately, the quilts and kits will be distributed to those in need in the far corners of the world. Some $339 was raised for shipping last weekend. Thanks, everyone for this multi-faceted effort.
