WELCA

The Women of the ELCA group (or WELCA) meets on the first Wednesday of each month with a program put on by one of the circles. For a variety they have morning meetings during the summer months, afternoon meetings during the school year and a spring fellowship during the evening in May. The women of the congregation are divided into 11 circles that meet in the morning, afternoon or evening for Bible Study and fellowship.

In December 2009, new officers were installed:

Quilting

The Rushford Lutheran Church quilting group meets during the months of January, February and March to make quilts that go to Lutheran World Relief, Camp Winnebago, Good Earth Village, The Ronald McDonald House as well as the International Health Service.

CLICK HERE to see some of the quilts from 2003.

Men's Club

Do you have a pair of work gloves that need to be broken in? The Men's Club is a working group. They meet to plan special projects that need to get done such as painting, care for the church lawn as well as many other things that just need doing. They are famous for the Men's Codfish Supper each fall in October. The funds earned support many good causes as well as fund many of the work projects around the church.

LYO (Lutheran Youth Organization)

The youth at RLC have three youth groups: Elementary, Middle School and High School. Each group has activities such as retreats, camps, choirs, service trips, vacation Bible school and special events. Go to "Youth and Education" to learn more about youth groups at RLC.

Choirs
