12/31 Campaign aims to meet growing ministry need

As the Lord continues to provide faithfully for Lutheran Church Charities, He is showing us that more need exists. Our neighbors in this hurting world are desperate for the care and comfort found only in our Savior Jesus.  
 
In response, LCC President/CEO Rev. Chris Singer has set a clear, mission-centered fundraising goal of $500,000 by December 31 for the Behind Every Good Deed year-end campaign, inviting our donors and partners to join us in reaching it together.
 
“This is a partnership milestone that reflects both confidence and faith,” Singer said. “With shared anticipation, we’re trusting God to provide at least $500,000 by year’s end — and believing He’ll do even more — so that LCC can keep saying ‘Yes!’ when compassion can’t wait.”

The Ministries of Lutheran Church Charities

Across all the ministries at LCC is the desire to BE THERE to share the Mercy, Compassion, Presence and Proclamation of Jesus Christ to those who are suffering and in need. ​​

Amid life's storms, our steady presence becomes a beacon of hope, a reminder that God's love is unwavering. Join us in answering the call to be a source of strength and comfort.

Together, let's cast aside fear and doubt, and BE THERE to bring light to the darkest corners of crisis.

Disaster
Response

Hearts of Mercy
& Compassion

Hearts of Mercy & Compassion® (HMC) provides a physical and spiritual symbol through the giving of hearts and crosses/markers to families and friends who have suffered a loss or are experiencing the illness of a loved one. An HMC can also be given to celebrate a victory, honor service, as an expression of love, or as encouragement. Given as a gift, each HMC provides the love and hope of Jesus through presence and prayer. ​

Moments of crisis cast shadows of uncertainty. As followers of Christ, we are called to be His hands and heart in the world. Just as Jesus walked alongside the weary and offered solace to the hurting, we too are called to BE THERE for each other.
