Lydia Circle

This is an informal group open to all women of Bethlehem. We do funeral lunches; assemble personal care kits for Lutheran World Relief; and make comforters for local and global needs.

Bethlehem’s Women of the Church organization is part of the Maumee Valley Conference of the Northwest Ohio Synodical Women’s Organization of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America.

An offshoot of the Women of the ELCA is the Lydia Mission Circle which meets monthly for Bible study, sponsors two children in India, bakes communion bread, and sends birthday cards to residents of the Filling Home in Napoleon.
