Lutheran Renewal Partners
Lutheran Renewal is a faith venture, supported solely by the gifts of individuals and congregations who share in the vision of bearing witness to the person and power of the Holy Spirit. We invite friends to link up with us and become partners—and help bring renewal in the Lutheran Church. This can happen in three ways:

  • Individual partners support the ministry of Lutheran Renewal through regular financial support.
  • Congregation Partner includes Lutheran Renewal in the church’s budget.
  • MST (Ministry Support Team) directs support to a particular area of ministry which is given oversight by a ministry associate. They receive personal letters and updated information from the associate or staff giving oversight.
