 |  There are a variety of ways for you to contribute and support Bethlehem Lutheran Ministries. |
Weekly Envelopes: an easy means of giving and an excellent way to practice stewardship. Using envelopes allows directed giving to both general and special collections throughout the year. A statement of contributions is sent to all members at the year-end. Please be sure to use the weekly envelopes that were issued to you. If you are a member and do not have your envelopes, contact the church office.
Simply Giving® is an automated giving program designed to help you conveniently and consistently contribute to a Lutheran congregation or institution or to pay tuition at a Lutheran school. Through Simply Giving®, your gifts or tuition payments are made through a pre-authorized withdrawal from your bank account or credit card. You determine the frequency of your automatic gift—weekly, semi-monthly or monthly—the option is yours.

Ever wonder how you can help Bethlehem earn money while you shop. How about an effortless and painless way to give to the church? The answer is very simple: participate in our community support programs! Bethlehem offers a great program that directly benefits our Ministries. Help spread the word! Tell your family and friends about this great program (you need not be a Bethlehem member to participate). There is very little you need to do to start the process. And, every time you shop at a participating merchant, a percentage of your transaction is given back to the church. It costs you nothing and brings in earnings to Bethlehem! Please contact us at blcs@followthestar.com. We will help you register your cards!
We participate with Albertson’s, Food 4 Less, Pavilions, Ralphs, Safeway, Vons and Macy's.
You simply register your existing grocery loyalty cards or charge card and use them at participating merchants. These merchants have agreed to donate a percentage of your expenditures to your enrolled organization.
Who benefits from the Community Support Programs?
Everyone! By purchasing groceries and other items that you need,without any addition cost to you, Bethlehem earns a percentage of the sales. It's just that easy!
How do I become a volunteer?

RECYCLE YOUR INKJETS, LASER, OR TONER CARTRIDGES AND CELL PHONES
Each cartridge thrown away at your home or workplace could be extra dollars for our program! Did you know that every second nine ink cartridges are thrown away each and everyday? Help us turn this waste into CASH!
Please donate your cell phones and cartridges by placing them in the collection bins found at our church and school. They may look like trash...but they add up to cash! Your contribution helps save the earth’s natural resources. These items will be reconditioned and used again instead of ending up in landfills.
SUPPORT OUR SCHOOL
It's always a good time to reflect on the countless gifts God gives us, especially the gift of His Son, our Savior, Jesus. This gift of Jesus is One we are blessed to be able to give to many children and parents each and every year through our Children's Ministries.
We have the opportunity to support an important portion of this ministry by giving a financial gift to our school. Thrivent members' gifts will be matched up to $300. Gift matching forms are available in the entryway of our Worship Center, online at the Thrivent website or contact the church office.
