Women of the ELCA (WELCA)

It is an acronym for Women of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. Every woman attending church is automatically a member of this Women’s Group.  We invite all women to attend the meetings and activities.   Check the monthly calendar for times and descriptions or contact any of the officers listed below!

 

 

 

A Wonderful Time was had by all!     Thank you, President Margo!\

 

 

 

 

In an effort to be more effective Christians, the women work in “Circles.” Each circle has a special focus. Each woman volunteers to help in the Circle(s) that makes the best use of talents God gave her. Circles meet monthly or quarterly, as needed.    Please check the sign up sheets on the table in the Narthex to sign up for Circle meetings!
