WELCA - Women of the ELCA
Our First Lutheran Church Women's organization faithfully serves our
congregation and community in many capacities. We have one circle, Mary
Martha Circle, that meets regularly for Bible study and fellowship. WELCA
also meets several times a year for special programs and fundraising
events for charity. First Lutheran’s WELCA is well known in the Quad Cities
community for its annual Cookie Walk and Craft Sale which is a fundraiser
held in the week prior to Thanksgiving. Also every two years the WELCA
group conducts a Recycled Treasure Sale. WELCA is a powerful
fundraising group, raising money to give away for local, statewide, and
global causes.
First Lutheran Church Fellowship Dinner
Men, women, and children gather for the FLC Fellowship dinner, which is a relaxing dinner evening out with friends. The meal is catered by a local caterer and those who attend get a lot of warm-hearted friendship. They meet on the first Monday of every month (except July and August) at 6:30 p.m.
First Friends
The mission of First Friends is to provide social activities for the congregation and to perform service projects.
Our mission is to worship God, to serve others, to support one another,
and to invite all people to share in this Christian ministry.
