Partnership in ActionSaint Paul Lutheran Church in Jackson, Missouri
sends a team of volunteers to Guatemala every two years. They work with our ministry center and a church in the city of Gualán doing construction projects, mission outreach and children’s programs. The experience has resulted in rich and lasting relationships. “We go and we serve and we give in response to the Holy Spirit’s work in us,” one participant told us, “but afterward we always feel as if we received more than we gave. You can’t get that feeling from any other facet of life!”

Global OutreachHere’s how Lutheran Hour Ministries carries out its
mission of Bringing Christ to the Nations—and the Nations to the Church in more than 30 countries worldwide:
• Radio broadcasts of locally produced programs
• Bible Correspondence Courses tailored for personal and private exploration of the Gospel
• Equipping the Saints evangelism workshops to strengthen volunteers’ understanding of witnessing
• Holistic outreach that shares the love of God in words and demonstrates it in action
• Music, drama and puppet ministries that use traditional songs and entertainment to teach about Jesus
• Rallies that attract large crowds in both rural communities and urban centers
• Youth-centered outreach such as Project JOEL that engages young people in Christian activities
Lutheran Hour Ministries’ outreach centers in more than 30 countries around the world use an innovative approach to spreading the Gospel.
Staff members at each center train lay volunteers to share the Gospel in their own communities, in their own language. People who respond are invited to learn more, to connect to a local church, to receive baptism and… to become lay volunteers so they can share the Gospel with still more people!
If this revolutionary movement in international evangelism excites you, we have a special opportunity for you: you can be a part of it. How? Through Lutheran Hour Ministries’ International Ministries Partnership program.
You can respond to an urgent ministry need right now with a one-time financial gift. Or you might wish to build a long-term direct relationship and sponsor a ministry center by providing sustained prayer and financial support.
Or if you’re called to go—to roll up your sleeves and work alongside your international ministry partners—we can help you get there with an International Volunteer Trip. You’ll get to know them, their families and the people they serve— and you’ll want to go back.
An International Ministries Partnership is as dynamic and flexible as you need it to be. You can choose one of these options—or every one of them—according to what works for you.

Partnership At Your Level
As a Lutheran Hour Ministries partner in International outreach, you decide your level of commitment to a ministry center, whether it is through a one-time gift, ongoing support, or volunteering for a short-term mission trip. At any level, your commitment is essential to sharing the message of Christ’s salvation with those who do not yet know Him.
