Education at Rushford Lutheran Church is a life
long experience. Our family education program has nearly 160 students
from three-year-olds to high school students each week. The confirmation,
or affirmation of Baptism, program is a chance for young Christians
to grow in their faith, learn about the Catechism and Bible and grow
in fellowship with one another. The program kicks off in September.
f
Adult education experiences focus on Bible study through adult forums, women's Bible study, and prayer fellowship. Check out Getting Involved for more information. |
