Bethany has been blessed over the years with students from Concordia Theological
Seminary assigned as field workers. Some of those students have written hymns
used here at Bethany. Also, Pastors Varsogea and Trouten have written hymn texts
which have been used to the edification of God's people. Click the pictures
below to see some of these hymns. We ask that, if you use them in your church,
you send us an e-mail and let us know; please include your feedback.
