This #ThankfulThursday, we're deeply grateful for the vibrant faith communities, schools, and Recognized Service Organizations of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. With over 5,900 LCMS churches and 900+ LCMS schools, they are beacons of God's love and grace. We are blessed to serve them.

One of the greatest gifts you can give yourself and your team for the holidays is ending the year well. In this #MinistryMoment, LCEF Vice President of Ministry Solutions Rev. Eric Kennaugh will discuss the keys to closing out the year to set up 2025 for success.

Think of the family members in your circle who have dedicated their lives to serving in the church. Now, we have a chance to give back to those who serve so faithfully. This Giving Tuesday, give as little as $10 in honor of a church worker you know and love. Your gift to the Church Worker Loan Pool helps ensure that they have the financial support they need. Let’s honor their dedication: lcef.org/GivingTuesday
