Steeple to People
Bethel Lutheran Church
The “Steeple to People” initiative began in 2021, by taking worship out of the church building and directly to a few of their members who couldn’t attend regular service. A need was seen, and an initiative was formed. Since then, the program has worked to, “...share God’s love with hugs, words of encouragement, prayers, stories, humor and laughter meeting in living rooms, basements, garages [and even] greenhouses.” The change allowed people to continue their personal relationship with God regardless of their mobility and circumstances. If you or others you know would like a chance to partake in some “off-site” worship with our Steeple to People, please reach out by calling Pastor Armstrong at 703-938-9444 or emailing Steeple2people@aol.com. They’re happy to meet you where you are on a Sunday for a 30-minute gathering around 11:30 am. Friends and family welcome! They’d love for you to know that “God loves you, and so do we!”.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
“My Country, ‘Tis of Thee”
1. My country, 'tis of Thee Sweet land of liberty Of thee I sing
Land where my fathers died Land of the pilgrims' pride
From every mountain side Let freedom ring
2. My native country, thee Land of the noble free Thy name I love
I love thy rocks and rills Thy woods and templed hills
My heart with rapture thrills Like that above
3. Let music swell the breeze And ring from all the trees Sweet freedom's song
Let mortal tongues awake Let all that breathe partake
Let rocks their silence break The sound prolong
4. Our fathers' God to Thee Author of liberty To thee we sing
Long may our land be bright With freedom's holy light
Protect us by thy might Great God, our King
Happy 4th of July Weekend!

About our Pastor
Welcome from Pastor G. Andreas Armstrong
I am presently serving the people of Zion and Bethel Churches and what a blessing it has been! God has also blessed me with a wonderful wife and two grown children, our daughter who lives and teaches school with her husband in Costa Rica and who have brought into our lives two wonderful grandchildren, and a son who works as a bartender in California (serving others like his dad?). I have had the pleasure of serving churches in Texas, North Carolina and Virginia since 1982 as part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America before coming here. God is indeed good.
There is so much more we can do when we serve together. That blessing becomes a reality when I, the only one at Church who is designated in writing as a part-time minister, am joined by everyone else here as full-time ministers. We take that calling seriously. I pray you will too if you consider joining this wonderfully blessed team of ministers to live out your faith, hope and love through Zion and Bethel Lutheran Churches. We are called in Christ Jesus our Lord to share the love of Christ from one generation to the next. Let’s do it!
God loves you and so do I!
