ELCA World Hunger
Given its set of accountable relationships with ELCA congregations, Lutheran churches overseas, and other partners, ELCA World Hunger is uniquely positioned to reach communities in need. From health clinics to microloans, water wells to animal husbandry, community meals to advocacy, gifts to ELCA World Hunger make it possible for the ELCA to respond, supporting sustainable solutions that get at the root causes of hunger and poverty.

Minnesota Interfaith Power and Light
Minnesota Interfaith Power and Light works in partnership with faith and spiritual communities and all Minnesotans to build transformative power and bring the lights of people’s unique gifts to addressing the climate crisis. It grows the climate movement in Minnesota by empowering individuals and communities across the state to take action that is authentic, effective, and energizing in their context.

Minnesota Council of Churches’ Healing Minnesota Stories
Healing Minnesota Stories is an effort to create understanding and healing between Native American and non-Native people, particularly those in various faith communities. The Sacred Sites Tour is an opportunity to reflect on the Indigenous History of Minnesota. Through encountering the art of oral history, participants will be guided through place-based storytelling, as they engage, meditate, and consider the price paid by Indigenous Peoples for Minnesota’s statehood. We all still need healing, healing is doable, and churches have a role to play in healing.
