Giving

The option to give by credit card is coming soon!

Congregations are asked to send benevolence and other gifts with the Congregational Remittance Form.

Many of your gifts to the ministry of the ELCA can come through the synod office. These include:

• World Hunger
• Domestic Disaster Response
• International Disaster Response
• Missionary Support (indicate the name of the sponsored missionary with your gift)
• Mission Investment Fund

There are a number of synod projects that need your support as well:

• Companion Synods
  • Tanzania Undesignated
  • Colombia Undesignated
  • Partner congregation or school (list name and country with your gift)
  • Other special project (eg. Tanzanian Scholarship Fund, Agape Social Center, LIZWAN, etc.)
• New Ministry Starts
• Endowment Fund

Please note that gifts ministries that are not related to the ELCA should not be sent through the synod office. If you’re not sure about a ministry, call us at 507-280-9457 or 800-426-6376 in Minnesota.
