Congregation Leaders

Seven congregations from around Australia will be supported in their outreach endeavours through grants from the LCANZ’s Local Mission Fund from 2026. In addition, a churchwide mission project will receive backing from the fund.

Among the many resources on the Congregational Life Hub are those about ministry in your congregation. And within that suite is a range of advice and tips about ensuring your congregation is the most welcoming it can be, especially Christmas with bringing many first-time visitors.

Enrolments for 2026 at Australian Lutheran College are now open, so it’s the perfect time to start exploring your study options. A quick enquiry is a great way to begin the conversation.
