Bethlehem Is in a Season of Transition and Discernment

Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran Church is looking for the full-time pastor God is calling to lead us into the next decades of our faith journey together. 

We seek an experienced candidate who has the theological, intellectual, and emotional breadth and depth to work in the stimulating, complex, and sometimes challenging environment of Los Alamos, New Mexico. The pastor will work with and be supported by our rostered deacon.

Organist/Pianist/Keyboardist details and application instructions.

 

"There is no longer foreigner and citizen, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus."
                                                                                                                                                 - Galatians 3:28

In our community life together we:

  • Share lots of good food, thanking God for what we receive
  • Hear God speaking to us in one another’s voices, learning and growing in wisdom
  • Sing and make music together
  • Celebrate milestones in our lives, and support each other through difficulties
  • Observe the seasons of the Church through traditions that are contemplative and joyful
  • Pray for the whole creation
  • Encourage one another for our daily vocations serving in the world
As ELCA Christians, we intentionally seek out relationships with people of other faiths and no faith, partnering together for the sake of the world.
At the same time, we claim the distinctive gifts of our Lutheran way of participating in Christ’s Church.
