LCA Story of the Week
This year the Lutheran church celebrates 70 years of reaching out in love to people in need through ALWS. Pastor Stephen Schultz says he was privileged to witness the fruit of this work last year at Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya and the way it has helped change people’s lives. Read the full story here>>
Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes

Together in mission 2020
