An active group of members meets here every Saturday afternoon. Attending the Divine Service is our most important activity each week. This is the time that we receive God’s gifts and respond with prayer and thanksgiving.

Our Ladies Aid and Men’s Club groups meet each month for Bible Study, fellowship, and event planning. The Ladies Aid hosts a Spring Luncheon and Fall Soup Supper each year, where their homemade pies are famous (at least around here).

Redeemer Lutheran Church was established by members of the Saude and Jerico congregations as members began to move from country to town. In 1953, the congregation purchased a country church building and moved it to its present location. Redeemer is a member church of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod (ELS).

The ELS enjoys church fellowship with the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS). Along with other Lutheran church bodies around the world, the ELS and WELS are part of the Confessional Evangelical Lutheran Conference (CELC).

Redeemer enjoyed a long partnership with Trinity Lutheran Church in Calmar. In 2018, it entered into a three-point parish arrangement with the Saude and Jerico Lutheran congregations. To learn more about us, please click the link below and visit our History page.
