Following Jesus leads us into places where life
is complicated, messy and broken. How does
our faith inform the way we show up? How
can we serve as a balm for our hurting world?
These are the questions we’ll explore during our
Wednesday evening worship services.

Easter Plants
Colorful spring flowers and plants
have become an important symbol
of rebirth at Easter time. Bethlehem
has embraced this tradition and
encourages the congregation to
participate through the purchase
of a variety of Easter flowers and
plants that will become part of our
worship space on Easter Sunday at
both campuses. You are invited to
help celebrate by dedicating a plant in
honor or memory of someone special.
MTKA: Orders should be dropped off
in the church office by April 1. Pick up
your flowers after worship on Easter
Sunday. Contact Sue Lungstrom with
any questions—952.935.3419.
MPLS: Order forms will be available
in the Gallery on Sunday mornings
(or you can place your order online).
Plants cost $20 each and can be
picked up the Tuesday after Easter.
Contact Chris Haugen with any
questions—612.312.3418.
Book Group: Seeing Gray in a World that is Black and White by Adam Hamilton.
Mid-week worship sermons will have a different format
this year. Think "discussion" not sermon. Pastors will
lead the congregation in conversation using Pastor Adam
Hamilton’s book Seeing Gray in a World of Black and White
as a framework. Reading the book is encouraged but not
necessary to participate.
