Our worship is traditional in style, as in word and music and sacrament we seek to make God’s presence known. We take the Bible seriously but not literally, reading and hearing it as God’s word of salvation through Jesus Christ. We are a church centered on God’s saving grace for all people. We welcome you wherever you are on your faith journey, questions, complexities and all. Since 1870Bethany Lutheran Church in Ishpeming, Michigan, was founded in 1870 by immigrants who came to work in the area’s mines. Tradition & ReformationWe are proud of our Lutheran heritage and the tradition it represents but we also understand ourselves to be a church that is always in a process of reformation as we proclaim the gospel message of salvation through the grace of Jesus Christ. Interpreting the BibleWe interpret the Bible as the living word of God so we seek to understand what it is saying to people today about issues relevant to 21st century life.

Communion Bread Recipe from Luther Seminary, St. Paul, Minnesota Sift dry ingredients together three times:
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix well. Dough should be slightly sticky. Do not knead. Divide into four balls and flatten each into a 1/4 inched thick disk. With a knife, score the top of each loaf into eight pie-shaped sections, so that the sections can be more easily broken off while serving. Alternatively, you could score a cross onto the loaf. Lay the loaves on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and brush the tops of the loaves with oil. Bake an additional 5-8 minutes. Let cool. Yield: four 8 oz. loaves. Each loaf serves 60-70 people, depending upon the size of the piece given. The loaves freeze well.
