The official date of Lutheran Hour Ministries Sunday was Feb. 1, but many congregations from across the United States have shared that they will be celebrating the ministry we do together by observing LHM Sunday on an alternate date. If your congregation hasn't held an LHM Sunday celebration yet, we'd like to encourage you to do so now! Any time is a great time to celebrate all the great things that God is doing through Lutheran Hour Ministries!
Thanks to a $100,000 matching grant provided to LHM this year from a generous donor, gifts given in the U.S. for LHM Sunday are worth twice as much until the amount of the match has been met! As an official auxiliary of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, LHM raises its own funds and is not included in the budget of the LCMS. We rely solely on gifts from faithful and generous supporters like you to be able to reach out effectively in Jesus' name.
All LCMS congregations should have received a DVD containing an LHM Sunday promotional video and a sermon from Rev. Seltz, as well as other promotional materials, in December. All of these materials are also available online at www.lhm.org/lhmsunday. Congregations planning to hold an LHM Sunday celebration in the coming weeks can also visit this web site to order FREE copies of bulletin inserts and offering envelopes to hand out to their members. Order these materials today! Please allow two weeks for delivery.
