Beacon Lutheran Church

BLC may be a memory, but God is still working on South Forest Street...

This week we offer prayers for Christ the Son of God Lutheran Church, a thriving Ethiopian and Eritrean community congregation in Seattle, Washington. We give thanks for the love and care shown by this family of believers -- especially as they work to launch a preschool with the help of a 2024 NOW District Catalyst Grant. Bless them as they build that bridge into the community! Christ the Son of God is led by Rev. Beniam Habthemariam. A prayer is posted here: https://buff.ly/3Mb1STW

Caroling 2021! I don't know how many years we've gone caroling, but this will be our second year in masks. (Alas!) This time around we'll be picnicking first, starting at noon. Afterwards we'll head out to sing to our elders, outside their homes. Look for the details in your emails. (And pray for a dry afternoon!)

Caroling 2020 is now history. It wasn't the first time we've sung out doors, but it was the first time we caroled in masks, socially distanced, and right next door to what looked like a major plumbing emergency. But whether it's a silent night or a noisy afternoon, Jesus is born!

To those who suggested we add a phone number or website:

Sorry, but the congregation doesn't really exist any more. No phone, no site. (But we do have a page. I know, weird...)
