Danish Old People's Home in Racine is now the Danish Home of Racine. There is a collection under that name (DHR-2011) consisting of 3 boxes of photographs taken from albums belonging to Marilyn Holm Nielsen, wife of Rev. LeVern Nielsen. It was supported by U.E.L.C. congregations in the area as well as other Danish organizations, but it was not a mission of the church. A book "Charities and Education" , published by the Women's Missionary Society of the U.E.L.C., is also in the box. It contains sections on the following old people's homes : Bethany, Salem, Edmore-Howard City, Bethel and Eben-Ezer. Bethany Home was originally a children's home, founded in Albert Lea in 1895 and moved to Waupaca in 1897 where it was known as Bethania Bornehjem (later Bethany). It became an old peope's home in 1953. The Bethany folder holds newsletters from the 1960s and 1990s; anniversary booklets and articles, the installation program for Lyle Roberts (1977); correspondence to and from Chaplain Adolph Petersen (1971); the July 1964 newsletter focuses on administrator Rev. R. M. and Mrs. Zonia Paulsen, who was a nurse; and there is a sheet of family information on Lars and Edah Madsen. This box contains various materials on old people's home in Nebraska (Good Samaritan in Hastings, Bethany in Minden,), Iowa (Salem in Elk Horn, Cedar Falls in Cedar Falls), Wisconsin ( Bethany in Waupaca) and California (Southland in Norwalk, Aldersly in San Rafael). Except for the ones in San Rafael and Cedar Rapids, they were all missions of the U.E.L.C.
