"Our Mission is to strengthen the presence of the Church in the College and the presence of the College in the Church"
Welcome to the web home of the Gustavus Office of Church Relations!
Gustavus is affiliated with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) which participates in the governance of the college through an Association of Congregations. The Gustavus Adolphus College Association of Congregations consists of approximately 500 ELCA churches that meet annually to elect the college's Board of Trustees. The office of Church Relations coordinates the Association convention and provides many Resources for Association members.
We're always looking to increase Association membership, so please visit the GACAC site for more information!
The first "chiefly musical" program at the College was held on December 18, 1879, in chapel at the end of the fall term, as students were leaving for Christmas. Attended by over 200 friends of the College, the "cornet band" led music.
Five student leaders, three student organizations, and two student-led events were recognized on Wednesday, May 7 at the annual Paul Magnuson Student Leadership and Service Awards Program at Gustavus Adolphus College.
