Mission
Affirming God’s love for all people, we work with Lutherans and partners around the world to end poverty, injustice and human suffering.
Here is the first half of our day in the field in the Gorkha District. We had a chance to visit with some villagers that lived thru the earthquakes last April and May. You may support the relief efforts in Nepal by going to www.lwr.org/nepal There is still a great need.
Where your support goes
In 1945, World War II left an estimated one-fifth of the world’s Lutherans homeless. Here in the United States, Lutheran churches in at least 20 states mobilized to help in Europe through a new agency called Lutheran World Relief.
The results
The recipients of LWR’s aid have changed — as has much of our operations — but in thousands of congregations, in millions of offerings and in uncounted prayers, US Lutherans have supported LWR’s work ever since.
LWR has learned a lot about walking with people who set out to better their lives and communities.
Around the world, LWR shares far more than relief supplies.
