Faith-In-Acton Grants
Events in our country and in the world have re-defined how we consider our obligations as Lutherans to our neighbors and fellow humans, providing opportunities to realize how important we are to each other and how much power we have to change lives for the better. We’re hopeful about funding truly exciting and transformational ideas once again.
Do you have an idea that could change a life?
