Other activities:  WELCA members serve funeral luncheons, prepare food for Lenten Soup Suppers, meet for Bible studies, donate to Lutheran World Relief, participate in the local World Cay of Prayer service and contribute a significant amount of fund-raised money to church improvements.

In the past year, the group has spent its money on everything from new soup spoons to a remodeled women’s bathroom. Upcoming projects include remodeling the men’s bathroom. We are also working with the property committee and our woodworkers to build more cabinetry for the upstairs education wing and to install new carpet and tile in the downstairs Sunday School wing.  Early in 2007, we plan to paint the Sunday School rooms.




You already belong: Every female member of Deerfield Lutheran belongs to one of four WELCA circles. Your name is added o a circle when you join the congregation. A directory of circle members is printed each year.
