The Lutheran Women’s Missionary League (LWML), with a membership of over 250,000, is the official women’s organization of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. The LWML focuses on affirming each woman in her relationship with Christ to enable her to be in ministry among the people of the world. For over 60 years the organization has been encouraging and equipping women to live out their Christian lives in active mission ministries and to financially support global missions.

The LWML focuses on ...

  • Richer Spiritual Living

  • Global Awareness for Ministry

  • Avenues for God-blessed Service

An Evening LWML group meets at Emmanuel on the first Tuesday of each month at 5:30pm.   Contact  eschallhorn@elcsmail.org
