GIVE NOW - 12/31 Year End Appeal

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.”

BEHIND EVERY GOOD DEED is … Jesus!
 
This year, we witnessed moments of heartbreak and moments of hope. In times of crisis, uncertainty, and loss, one truth remained constant: Jesus was present.
 
Behind every act of compassion…
 
Behind every prayer offered and every hand extended…
 
Behind every faithful volunteer, trusted ministry partner, dedicated staff member, and generous donor is Jesus—working through His people. And working through you.
 
At Lutheran Church Charities, we serve because He first served us. Guided by His love, our ministries bring the hope, peace, and mercy of Christ to those who need it most.
 
None of this happens alone. Your prayers, generosity, and steadfast support make it possible for us to follow Jesus into places where compassion can’t wait.

BEHIND EVERY GOOD DEED is … a generous donor!
 
Steadfast and generous LCC donors enable the ministry to say “yes” when a call for help comes. When the need is urgent or sizeable, regular gifts — resources, time, and talent — allow LCC to respond in a heartbeat.
 
Every act of generosity has the power to turn compassion into action, bringing the light of Christ as physical help and spiritual care are given. 
 
As we close this year, we see that the need is growing. We invite you to join us in our 12/31 campaign — Behind Every Good Deed — to meet that demand. Every gift, every prayer, every act of support helps us bring care and comfort where compassion can’t wait.
 
Thank you for standing with us as a generous donor in the name of our Savior.

BEHIND EVERY GOOD DEED is … a faithful volunteer.
 
LCC volunteers reliably show up, bringing care and compassion wherever the need arises.

In times of crisis, they embody Christ’s love through consistent presence and unwavering faith.

They invest time, talent, and treasure to serve. Their hearts are “all in” for the work of Christ.

BEHIND EVERY GOOD DEED is … a trusted ministry partner. 
 
When a crisis happens, Lutheran Church Charities connects with local congregations to serve and bring the hope of Jesus to the hurting. LCC ministry partners share resources inside and outside the church with their communities for short-term and long-term recovery. Together with LCC, they are key to bringing the presence of Christ to trauma-impacted areas. 
 
As we close this year, we invite you to join us once again in our 12/31 campaign — Behind Every Good Deed. Every gift, every prayer, every act of support helps us bring the light of Christ where compassion can’t wait. Thank you for standing with us and our faithful volunteers in the name of our Savior.

BEHIND EVERY GOOD DEED is … a dedicated staff member. 
 
Lutheran Church Charities employees work alongside volunteers and church ministry partners to bring hope and encouragement when disaster strikes or tragedy unfolds. They connect with others to meet physical, emotional, and spiritual needs while bringing the love of Christ in all they do.
 
LCC staff members care deeply about the mission and bring creativity and resilience so the ministry can thrive. Their integrity and prayerful commitment ensure the big picture and small details are handled with professionalism and excellence.
 
As we close this year, we invite you to join us once again in our 12/31 campaign — Behind Every Good Deed. Every gift, every prayer, every act of support helps us bring the light of Christ where compassion can’t wait. Thank you for standing with our dedicated staff members, who serve with our volunteers and church congregations, in the matchless name of our Savior.

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:10

As I reflect on this year, I am filled with gratitude for you.

Your heartfelt financial support of Lutheran Church Charities — great and small — sustains us through deployments and community care outreach across the nation. Because of you, the light of Christ has entered places of deep loss and need — not just for a moment, but for lasting help and healing. Your steadfast generosity equips this ministry for the moments when compassion simply can’t wait.

The impact is amazing! This year, that compassion reached across the country — to families grieving after shootings in Florida, Minnesota, and Michigan; to victims of the Texas Hill Country floods; and to first responders still serving amid the Southern California wildfires.

God’s call on LCC continues to grow. There is more work to do — and more lives to touch with the hope found only in our Savior Jesus!

Will you continue your support of Lutheran Church Charities as 2025 draws to a close?

In moments like these, trusted ministry partners like you are the reason LCC can say “yes” when the call for help comes. As those calls have multiplied these past two years, God is using your support to strengthen this ministry — so we can keep saying “yes,” with your generosity
BEHIND EVERY GOOD DEED.
