ULEN, Minn. \u2014 It has been an incredible summer for Bethlehem Lutheran in Ulen.<\/p>\n

It was back in 1876 that Scandinavian settlers to Clay County started the church.<\/p>\n

This month, Bethlehem marked 150 years.<\/p>\n

Former pastors joined the congregation in a big celebration Sunday, June 14.<\/p>\n

There was a special art installation, music, a program marking the history of the church in Ulen and, of course, a meal.<\/p>\n

The church was packed as the town of Ulen honored the past and embraced the future.<\/p>\n
