Book Description
Excerpt from The History of Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church The history of Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church is the history of people. It is a look at their faith, their failings, their strengths, and their weak nesses. It is the story of continual striving for a better religious life. It is the story of logs, frame planks, brick and metal. It is the story of shared religious homes, of burned churches, of meeting in homes, of self-sufficiency, and of a new Church. The history of Bethel is the story of Sunday Schools, Bible Schools, Children's Day, organs, and pianos. It is the story of synod ical breaks and synodical unions. But more than any thing else the history of Bethel Church is the story of its people. Ed Harmon characterized Bethel Church thusly: My daddy always said, the best people in the world are at Bethel, ' and they still are. 1 Ed Harmon is a life-long member of Bethel whose roots run deep. He recalled two world wars, synod changes different pastors and various lay leadership. But for Ed Harmon the factor which remains constant is the people of Bethel Church.
