Come bid Pastor Roger and Judy Michaelson farewell and well wishes on their retirement. Pastor will preach at 9 AM worship for the last time. Immediately following the service, there will be a program to honor the Michaelsons’ service to Rushford Lutheran Church. This will be a time to celebrate, give thanks and highlight past events. Join us for a potluck in Fellowship Hall at 11 AM. The church will provide meat and a beverage, please bring a dish to pass. Thank you, Pastor, for the years of faithful ministry, teaching and being our shepherd in the many joys and sorrows of life through your long tenure at Rushford Lutheran Church.

FOR JUDY
Plan to attend an open house to wish Judy Michaelson the best as she begins a new chapter of living up north!! It’s Wednesday, June 20th from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. All women of RLC are invited. A light lunch with coffee and punch will be served by the RLCW. Please come and share in our appreciation to wish Judy our best on their retirement.

Thank you to Donald and Laurine Woxland for providing the funds to have automatic doors installed on the doors under the Hwy 43 canopy. A very nice addition!

If you’d like to donate $60 for one (or $30 for a half) to put beautiful flowers in the planters out front in memory or honor of someone, please let the office know.

 

Thank you to our members for donating funds to fill our planters with beautiful flowers this summer/fall!
