LWML MEETING

Do you know about Our Redeemer Church's chapter of the Lutheran Woman's Missionary League (LWML)? As an auxiliary organization of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, our mission is to assist people in their relationship with the Triune God so that they can use their gifts in ministry to people of the world.

All the ladies of the congregation are invited! Inquiries about this ministry can be directed to ORELC LWML President Nancy Stinnett or call the church office for more information. (232-7575).
