Rich Larson, D. Min.Pastor
(651) 439-3450, ext. 12 pastor.blcbayport@gmail.com Pastor Rich's hopes for Bethlehem: More important than growing in numbers or growing in programs or finances, I believe that we must all commit ourselves to growing in faith and spirit. I will consider myself successful at Bethlehem if I have helped people become closer to Christ as their savior, and if I have aided our members in achieving a deeper spiritual walk. We continue looking for God's activity in the world around us. Education: St. Olaf College, Northfield, MN - B.A. in Music and Religion (1976) Luther Seminary, St. Paul, MN, M. Div. (1980) Luther Seminary, St. Paul, MN, D.Min. (2010) Service: West Prairie Lutheran Church, Williston, ND (1980-1986) First Lutheran Church, Associate Pastor, Stoughton, WI (1986-1996) Pastor Rich joined Bethlehem as Sr. Pastor in August of 1996. |
