History of Bethany Willing Workers' Society
On January 15, 1925 the Bethany Church young women and girls formed a missionary society at the parsonage led by Mrs. Bernie Hietbrink. Eighteen names appeared, 15 became regular members, including three charter members today. Over 25 years 53 names enrolled, seven members died, and in 1928 eight joined after the Ladies Aid disbanded. The society then lacked a regular minister.
