How is your congregation going with implementing their Child Safety Standards Action Plan? We love hearing from congregations that are working to implement their Child Safety Standards Action plans.

If your congregation has a local mission idea needing financial support to become a reality, the LCANZ Local Mission Fund may be the answer to your prayers. The new fund is now open for applications.

Did you know the LCA website has a find-a-church tool that can be used to locate Lutheran churches, schools or aged-care facilities?

A Congregational Life website designed to support LCANZ congregations and agencies in areas including worship, pastoral care, discipleship and faith teaching, outreach and church planting, and community service is being developed by the church.

Some LCANZ congregations may be missing out on critical information – for example, about General Synod or the Way Forward project – because their office bearer details are not up to date in LAMP2.
