Motto: Serve the LORD with gladness! (Psalm 100:2)
Mission Statement: As Lutheran Women in Mission, we joyfully proclaim Christ, support missions, and equip women to honor God by serving others.
Vision Statement: The LWML is the leading group for LCMS women where each woman is welcomed and encouraged to use her unique God-given gifts as she supports global missions and serves the Lord with gladness.
Greetings in the name of our Risen Lord, Jesus Christ!
As we praise our Lord and delight in the beauty of His Spring creation, we count our blessings! Blessings of family and friends, of our church family, and the joy of serving Him!
Our “Big News” is that as we completed the last day of our fiscal biennium, March 31, 2026, we exceeded our goal! What a blessings to add to all the others! We were able to fund our Mission Grants, provide our gift to LWML, and fund the in-reach which supports the expenses of the district. Thanks be to God for generous hearts who provide for the work of our missions in bringing the “lost and the erring” into fellowship with Him!
