The Combined Churches Welcome Pack Project, spearheaded by Victor Harbor Lutheran Church and funded by a $10,000 LCANZ Local Mission Seed Fund grant, is a collaborative effort among churches on the Fleurieu Peninsula to welcome the growing number of new residents moving into the area.

Inspired by a story about mission grants available in the LCANZ and acknowledging a lack of youth and young families in their congregation, members of Immanuel Lutheran Church Kadina SA decided to act.

Grow Ministries has many wonderful resources and ideas that are perfect for preparing our hearts for Jesus and his coming at Christmas.

The LCANZ encourages congregations to choose one Sunday every year to celebrate the ministries of care happening in our local churches and communities.
