Mission Partners

Mission Partners are congregations linked together in dynamic relationships to empower and expand the outreach ministry of ELCA congregations. Through supportive relationships, these congregations share in the excitement of proclaiming God's love.

Linkages developed between rural, suburban or urban congregations, which encompass a variety of cultures and languages, enrich and invigorate the ministries of both partners.
