Lutheran Women's Missionary League (LWML)

The LWML, also known as Lutheran Women in Mission, sponsors activities to interest a wide range of women members of our congregation. It was started in the early 1940's and slowly replaced the "Ladies' Aids" in the churches. It is a national, a regional and a local organization, which enables women to become a force in the church, able to support missions and missionaries. It utilizes the organizational and administrative talents of women and is the official women's organization of the Synod. All women church members are automatically members of LWML.
