Celebrate LHM Sunday At Your Church
We hope you will consider hosting a Lutheran Hour Ministries (LHM) Sunday at your church this year. This day is a chance to celebrate the critical partnership between churches, individuals, and LHM in Bringing Christ to the Nations—and the Nations to the Church. The official date for LHM Sunday, when many churches across the country will celebrate, is February 1, 2026 … but you can host this event any day your congregational calendar permits.
While some local churches conduct their own outreach work overseas, many churches do not. As a global mission organization that brings the hope of Jesus to individuals in more than 60 countries, LHM offers the opportunity to fill that gap. In addition, LHM offers resources to support your church and help strengthen your members’ spiritual walk. These resources include Daily Devotions, video-based Bible studies, felt-need topical booklets, Gospel Adventures for children, research-based materials developed in partnership with Barna Group, and more.
LHM has already mailed physical materials to all LHM Ambassadors. Not an Ambassador? Simply visit lhm.org/lhmsunday to access all the materials you need to host this critical event. Talk to your pastor today about getting LHM Sunday onto the calendar in 2026.

LHM Ambassador Steve Dahl hosted two LHM Sunday events this year. The first one in January was at King of Kings Lutheran Church and School in Roseville, Minnesota. He set out LHM resources in the narthex and did a mission minute after both services. “The church and school are very active with LHM,” says Dahl. “We have a table and a standing display rack with adult and children’s booklets, we use the Bible studies, and we are using the materials to read through the Bible in a year as a congregation.”
A few weeks later, he hosted an LHM Sunday at Waikoloa Lutheran Church in Waikoloa Village, Hawaii, where he spends extended time each year. “It’s a small but growing congregation that is in the midst of a building campaign for its first building. They currently meet (set up/take down each week) in the community center.” The materials were well received by members at both churches, and Dahl is planning to continue developing awareness of LHM resources, including Project Connect booklets that are displayed at these churches, as well as LHM’s Daily Devotions and other digital resources.
