Thanksgiving is just around the corner… but we don’t want to wait to enjoy some pie! On Sunday November 9 after worship, we’ll kick off the season with a Pie Preview. It will be an opportunity to sample some delicious pies as a preview to the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday! Bakers are needed to make this Pie Preview a success. If you would like to bake a pie to share for the Pie Preview, please contact Pastor Candy by November 4.
Join with neighbors of many faiths for the Bethlehem Interfaith Group (BIG) Thanksgiving service! This year’s gathering will take place on Sunday November 23 at 3:00 PM at Star of Bethlehem Lutheran Church. All are welcome to attend!
Opioid addiction can impact any family and any community. As people committed to hope and wholeness, we seek to make a difference in the current opioid epidemic by educating ourselves and our community on the proper use of Narcan, a first aid medication that can be used to rapidly reverse an opioid overdose. We will host a Narcan training session on Sunday November 9 at 1:00 PM in the Sanctuary. This training will be led by individuals from Northampton County’s “Fake Is Real” fentanyl awareness campaign. All are welcome to attend! Registration is required by Monday November 3. To register, please use our online registration form.
Get into the holiday spirit with a bus trip to the American Music Theatre’s 2025 Christmas show, “Deck the Halls!” Our church’s bus trip, organized by the Wesley Men’s Group, will take place on Thursday December 11. The bus will depart from the church at 9:45 AM and return at 7:30 PM. Tickets are $130 for adults and $105 for children 12 and under, and include the show ticket, bus, and a buffet lunch at Miller’s Smorgasbord. For more information, or to reserve your ticket, please contact Frank Madura or Rich Chambers. Reservations (with payment) are due by October 30.
It’s time for Penny Wars! This year’s matchup? It’s an Usher (& Greeter) Showdown!
| But this year, we’re raising the stakes. This year, our Penny War is… a Dollar War! Between now and Sunday October 26, bring in your coins and cash and place them in our competitors’ jars. How does it work? Donations in each competitor’s jar earn points. Dollars add points (+100 points per dollar bill), while change and other bills subtract points (-5 points per nickel, -500 points per $5 bill, etc.). It’s a game of friendly sabotage! At the end of “Penny” Wars, the highest-scoring competitor will be declared the winner… and the lowest-scoring competitor will get a pie in the face! The winner will be announced on Sunday November 2. Join us after worship on Sunday November 9 for the pie-in-the-face fun! What happens to the money? All proceeds from this year’s Penny Wars will be used to repair the sanctuary lighting system. |
The church office will closed on Monday October 13 in observance of the Indigenous Peoples’ Day / Columbus Day holiday. We will resume our regular office hours on Tuesday October 14.
