Welcome to Bethlehem Lutheran Church
This time of year in the Church Calendar in which we celebrate
the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the Church and its
continuing mission of spreading the Gospel and growth in the lives of
all baptised believers on earth.
We continue to pray for Pastor Bernard from the First Lutheran Church of Cap Hatien, Haiti, his family, the church, and all of the suffering people of Haiti. This is specially important at this time of year since it it is the beginning of the hurricane season and many are still without any perminent shelter.

Pastor England is exploring the possibility of re-establishing weekly evening Bible Studies on the campus of Wright State University beginning this September. All college-aged individuals, members and friends, are invited to participate and learn more about how the Scriptures help us to cope with our everyday lives. Please contact Pastor England or call the Church Office at (937) 878-0651 to add your name to our roster.
"For
you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your
freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one
another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: ' You shall
love your neighbor as yourself.' But if you bite and devour one
another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another. But
I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the
flesh. For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and
the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are
opposed to each other,to keep you from doing the things you want to
do." Galatians
5:13 - 17 (ESV)
