Luther Village - Disaster Assistance for our Synod Camp
|
|
Click here for the latest update (good news!). Help still needed to recover from the storm in September 2018. To make a donation click here. Please continue to keep Luther Village in your prayers.
|
|
Since this annual appeal began in 2009, it has allowed us to continue funding ongoing mission in our Synod, ministries like Luther Village, Lutheran Urban Ministry, Youth and Young Adult Programming and Cameroon visits.
Perhaps even more significantly, it has provided resources to do some new things in our Synod each year, which would have not been possible with the regular benevolence dollars.
Please find further information, including letter to congregations and bulletin inserts, here.
