Crisis in East Africa

Conflict, climate change and hunger are putting millions of lives at risk in East Africa - violence in Sudan and severe drought in countries like Somalia have displaced millions, leaving them without reliable access to food and water. CANADIAN LUTHERAN WORLD RELIEF, together with partners in the Humanitarian Coalition, is appealing for donations to respond to this crisis. Your support will be doubled by the Canadian Government’s matching fund until June 30th. Please Visit Crisis in East Africa(clwr.org) or call 1-800-661-2597learn more

Support for Ukraine

There are several ways to support the people of Ukraine during this difficult and dangerous time. First, and most important, is prayer. Then we are called on to provide practical help as we are able. 

Lutheran Church-Canada has established a fund to assist the Pastors and People of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Ukraine. You can learn more about this fund, including how to donate online at this link. https://www.canadianlutheran.ca/lcc-ukraine-aid-fund/

 Also, Canadian Lutheran World Relief has established an emergency fund to meet the physical needs of those being displaced by the invasion. You can support this effort at this link: https://donate.lwr.org/give/393187/#!/donation/checkout
