Lutheran World Relief. The Good News of Jesus Christ for all people is that God loves the world and offers new life. Because God loves us first, we are free to love others--including those not like us and not of our faith. When Jesus walked among us He said that whatever we do for sisters and brothers in need, we do for Him. In His footsteps, the humble teach the proud, the poor lead the rich, and the last shall be first. In obedience to God and for the sake of the world, Lutheran World Relief lives by these core values: Faith is Active in Love; God Gives All People Dignity; We Serve With Partners; We Make Good Use of God's Gifts; We Work for Justice and Peace.
The World Mission Prayer League is a Lutheran community in the mission of God.

Approximately 120 serve as full-time missionaries in pioneering service and outreach ministries in Asia, Africa and Latin America, as well as the United States and Canada.
