Mission Statement and Ministry Objectives

Mission Statement

Bethany Lutheran Church of Johnson County is a community of God’s people gathered by the Holy Spirit for the purpose of lifting the Cross of Christ to those around us and throughout the world, so that life with our Father might be shared by all.

Ministry Objectives

Guided by the Holy Spirit, we conclude that Christ is calling each member of Bethany to a ministry of making disciples --- more disciples and better disciples. This mandate of the Great Commission is fulfilled as we:

1. Celebrate God’s love and our life in the Lord through regular worship with Word and Sacrament.

2. Cultivate a more personal relationship with Christ and a deeper understanding of our Christian Faith through the study of God’s word.

3. Communicate to the unsaved the good News of God’s forgiveness and life through the death and resurrection of Jesus.

4. Care for the spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of all within and outside the family of faith.

5. Call each believer to active discipleship --- to a Christian lifestyle characterized by prayer, love, joy, service, and obedience to the Will of God.

6. Challenge each other in love to offer to Christ and His Church the best of our time, talent, and treasure.

7. Come together as the family of God for mutual encouragement, fellowship, and support.
