ELCA Missionary Support for Pastor Kim Erno, The Lutheran Center, Mexico City: Grace Church provides support for the ELCA Missionary serving the people of Mexico.
Hurricane Katrina Disaster Response: Our Adult SCS classes provide financial support to Peach Lutheran Church in Slidell, LA. This sister congregation has turned their facilities into a hostel and hospitality center for volunteers helping Lutheran Disaster Response rebuild hurricane-destroyed homes.
Mission Trips: Our members have gone twice, (so far) to the Gulf Coast to help with Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. Both youth and adults have traveled to various parts of the country to help rebuild homes for the poor and elderly. We hope to arrange a Mission trip to Mexico in the future.
Christian Children's Fund: For many years our children and youth have collected coins during SCS to support an "adopted child" through monthly gifts to the Christian Children's Fund.
ELCA World Hunger Appeal: Each year our members provide regular and generous support for the ELCA World Hunger Appeal-part of the Lutheran World Federation relief efforts-one of the world's best operated and most respected international aid programs. |
