1 Volume 57 Issue 9 September, 2017 Bethany Lutheran Church Mission Statement Reaching out in Worship, Fellowship, Learning, and Love - We Are God s People. God s Work. Our Hands. On Saturday, September 9, the Lutheran churches in Burlington will join Lutheran churches from across the ELCA in a day of service to their communities to share the love of God with all people. You can all be a part of this wonderful program. The day will begin with a breakfast at 8:30 a.m. at Faith Lutheran Church. We will then have a short gathering to bless our work. We will be filling Celebration Bags for Community Action. These bags will contain a cake mix, can of frosting, candles, and a party favor. We will be collecting diapers and cleaning supplies for Lutheran Services Iowa. These will include a 3 gallon bucket, mop, broom, rags, liquid cleaning supplies, etc. There is a blue bin outside the sanctuary for donations for the Celebration Bags and cleaning supplies. We will finish the painting that we started last year at the homeless shelter. We will prepare the community garden at the YMCA for the next season. We will package food for Kids Against Hunger at Messiah Lutheran at 10:30 a.m. Bethany Evangelical Lutheran Church 2515 Madison Ave. Burlington, Iowa Phone: (319) Pastor s Cell: (360) Our Staff Rev. Paul Hermansen, Pastor Cory Byrne, Choir Director/Organist Amanda Stevenson-Cosgrove, Dir. of Youth & Family Sue Hermansen, Admin. Asst. Dennis Wohlers, Financial Sec y Mike & Tammy Morris, Custodians
2 The congregation is invited to the wedding of Marcy Ruberg to Scott Peters On Saturday, September 23, 2017, at 3:30 p.m. at Bethany Lutheran Church. Reception to follow at Hibernia Hall, 1204 Washington St., Burlington, Iowa. HOMEBOUND CARD MINISTRY Please help remember Bethany s members who are in nursing homes or homebound by sending them a card. A birthday or a thinking of you card is a special way of showing God s love. During the summer months, take a minute to send a card with a short note - these folks would love to hear from you. Names and addresses are available on the table in the fellowship hall. Please remember to mark the spreadsheet if you send a card. GENESIS BIBLE STUDY PAINT-A-THON September 4-8 The Genesis Bible study, meeting now on Wednesday evenings, will be moving to Sunday night at 7:00 p.m. beginning September 17. Genesis is one of the most fascinating books in the Bible. Please join us. The dates have been set for this year s Paint-A- Thon. There is a sign-up sheet outside the sanctuary for us to indicate when we can help. Thanks for your serving. SEPTEMBER ACTIVITIES The Retired Nurses will be meeting this month for a luncheon here at Bethany at Noon on Friday, September 1. Please bring a dish to share. Boy Scout Troop #25 has their regular weekly meetings on Tuesdays.
3 CARPET FUND DRIVE Our carpet fund drive to help cover the remainder of the cost for new carpet and linoleum is still ongoing. So far we have donations of $12, A special thanks to all who have contributed to this fund so far. We have $ left to reach our goal. If you would like to give a donation, note on your gift that it is for the carpet fund. Your generosity on this matter is most appreciated. Linda Elmore is having knee surgery on October 23. She needs someone to watch her dog, Little Buddy, on that day and the following few days of rehab. She will furnish food and treats. If you can help out Linda and Little Buddy, please call Linda at DYNAMIC MINISTRY FORUMS September 21 at 7:00 p.m. Our Dynamic Ministry Forums have been listening to messages from Hope Lutheran Church. These have given rise to meaningful conversation about ideas for Bethany. Our next Forum is on September 21 in the library. BETHANY PRESS BRIEFINGS The following is a list of church related items that I would like to put in one article. September is the month we resume our fall schedule. Attendance and participation in Bible studies has been trending up. Because confirmation happens at the same day and time as our Wednesday Bible study, the Wednesday Bible study on Genesis moves to Sundays nights at 7:00 p.m. starting on September 17. I will schedule an adult forum on the Sundays I have no meetings. I would love to introduce contemporary music for Sunday worship with a screen and projector. I am trying to put together a team of technicians. I would also love to have people who play musical instruments contact me to add to the wonderful music Cory shares. Amy Unglaub has graciously stepped in for our Fellowship Committee. Their next meeting will be September 6 at 6:30 p.m. Our fall ministry kicks off on Rally Sunday, September 10. Sunday School will meet after worship. At Noon we have our church potluck picnic at Crappo Park. Hope to have a good turnout. The Social Ministry Committee meets on September 10 at 10:15 a.m. The Marcy Ruberg/Scott Peters wedding is on September 23 at 3:30 p.m. here at Bethany. During the wedding we will baptize daughter Layla. The congregation is invited to the wedding and the reception to follow at Hibernia Hall.
4 ...fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my victorious right hand. Isaiah 41:10 SMOOTH SEAS DO NOT MAKE SKILLFUL SAILORS! This summer brought me personal information that I would have been very happy not to have received. As you know by now, I have been diagnosed with prostate cancer. While I was told I am a moderate risk, I am still taking steps to hopefully become cancer free. How do you process hearing negative news that directly affects you? For nearly forty years a major part of my ministry has been reaching out to others who are navigating through troubled waters. Now I am on those stormy seas! The reactions to such events are wide ranging. The initial reality is to ask, Why is this happening to me? I am grateful for our Lutheran theology that resists the urge to automatically blame ourselves when bad things happen to us. Our Lutheran understanding of misfortune is simply that bad things happen to many of us. In some instances our actions may be the source of our suffering and we would do well to alter the behavior that creates our unpleasant dilemna. But most important of all is turning to God and the body of Christ to receive the caring, support, and intervention that will help us better process our circumstances. The caring and compassion I have received since announcing my cancer has been amazing. The concern for my wife is also greatly appreciated. We have an appointment at a clinic in Cedar Rapids that has been highly touted for the success others have received who were in a similar situation. In the meantime I thank you for your ongoing prayers. I will, in kind, continue to strive to be a sensitive ear and voice of hope to others who experience their own turbulent seas. God promises to be with us. Because He is our God we need not be dismayed. He will strengthen, help, and uphold us with His victorious right hand. In Christ, Pastor Paul

I had an amazing time, and it made me feel so much more connected to God. Thank you so much, Samuel Morehead Bethany Family: Thanks for giving me the opportunity to go to such a wonderful camp. It was an amazing experience. I also appreciated the loving support of the church. It really put me out of my comfort zone which helped me grow my faith. I met and made a lot of new friends. My favorite part was canoeing! Tyler Burch
