Applications to support pastors, staff, lay leaders, and volunteers in enhancing their ministry skills.
Member Congregations and Schools in northeast Indiana may apply for a Lutheran Grant. The Lutheran Foundation will continue to consider applications for a variety of ministry needs. To assist in addressing the challenges in a post-Christian culture, research has identified the following focus areas which will be given priority:
Applications to support pastors, staff, lay leaders, and volunteers in enhancing their ministry skills.
Applications to help congregations and schools identify, clarify, and implement their mission and strategic direction to support visioning processes and multi-year ministry planning.
Applications to support Word and sacrament ministry and/or acts of mercy for the benefit of people within congregations, schools, and the broader community.
Collaboration with other congregations and schools is welcomed and encouraged although not required.
The Lutheran Foundation Board of Directors may from time to time expand upon their understanding and interpretation of these guidelines and may also make exceptions at their discretion.
