Bethlehem Lutheran Church, Florence, Wisconsin

Bethlehem Lutheran Church is a small but active congregation of the Northern Great Lakes Synod of the ELCA. Founded in 1892, Bethlehem now welcomes about 30 people each Sunday for worship. We are part of the Florence Parish, a long‑standing partnership with First Presbyterian Church of Florence, Wisconsin. For over 30 years, our congregations have shared a pastor, educational ministries, regular joint worship, and a life of fellowship and service.

Bethlehem is a community of ordinary people of all ages seeking the warmth, support, and challenge of God’s love in Jesus Christ. Called by God and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we strive to be a visible expression of God’s love, forgiveness, presence, and peace as we worship, learn, serve, share, and witness together.

We do not aim to draw people away from their church homes. If you have one, we encourage you to grow there. But if you are seeking a place to belong and meet God as you are, we invite you to join the Bethlehem family.
