Religious Life Council

RLC's membership consists of representatives from each of the religious organizations on campus, and members-at-large (i.e., anyone interested in being a part of planning religious activities).

Otterbein Christian Fellowship (OCF)

During the weekly meetings we have student testimonies, bible study, prayer, music, fellowship, and food. Outside the meetings we have dinners, activities, service projects, speakers and churches, and other opportunities to encourage each other spiritually and personally.
