Ladies Guild, Helvetia Church
Title
Ladies Guild, Helvetia Church
Description
A group portrait of women from the Ladies Guild of the Reformed Church of Helvetia, Oregon in 1937. Many of the members of this church were from Swiss or German immigrant families. Its original language for church services was German, although by the time this photograph was taken, most services were in English. The women wear comfortable dresses, most with shorter sleeves and buttons up the front. A man in a suit (possibly the church pastor?) stands at the very back of the group.
