Our communities are located in the Wisconsin Driftless region in the southwestern part of the state characterized by bluffs, big rivers, small creeks and prairies nestled among the rolling hills of unglaciated Wisconsin. Our historic communities are safe and abound with outdoor recreation and cultural events.
Our two, small town churches work well together and are calling a Pastor to serve our congregations. Our communities are wonderful places to raise a family and for anyone to proudly call home.
These small-town communities offer a unique blend of friendship, cooperation and Christian values. We are looking for a spiritual leader for our congregations who will embrace and become part of our multigenerational church.
