Congregations who join need to send a letter on their church letterhead

or church council decision) of their affirmation of the Lutheran CORE
Constitution and
intention to support Lutheran CORE. The letter may be sent to either

Lutheran individuals and congregations may join Lutheran CORE regardless of their church affiliations. Lutheran CORE is committed to serve both those individuals and congregations that choose to remain affiliated with the ELCA
and the ELCIC and those that choose to affiliate with other
Lutheran church bodies. Lutheran CORE will help Lutherans in North America
focus on the main thing - proclaiming Jesus Christ and His Gospel and making
disciples. This is one way to work together in mission and ministry with faithful Lutherans both inside and outside of the ELCA
and the ELCIC.
We also ask that you support Lutheran CORE financially. You may make an online donation or checks may be sent to Lutheran CORE, 2299 Palmer Drive, Suite 220, New
Brighton, MN 55112. Lutheran CORE is a religious, non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation, and your contributions are fully tax-deductible. We will need significant funds as a community of confessing Lutherans and for the formation of the North American Lutheran Church in the reconfiguration of Lutheranism in North America. |
