Bethany Lutheran Church is part of the Lutheran family of churches in The American Church Story. 231 congregations of the Lutheran family gather across New Jersey — 15,905 across the United States on The Church Map.

Lutherans put the gospel back into ordinary hands — Scripture in the language people actually spoke, and hymns the congregation itself was allowed to sing. That the church is saved by grace through faith, and that the whole assembly sings, are now the inheritance of nearly every Protestant church in America.

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About a third of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat, and about 1 in 10 the workforce is looking for work and not finding it. That is 2,500 neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
