Congregation Resources
Thank you, Loving Lutherans!
When an anonymous donor challenged our Lutheran community to give $1M collectively to LSS by matching your donations, the response was overwhelming!
The programs and services LSS provides, together with our advocacy work, help foster connection and hope for people who are often isolated and marginalized in our society.
The resources below an opportunity to lift up social services work as ministry to and advocacy for the “poor in spirit.”
Congregation Resoures include:
Schedule an LSS Sunday
While any Sunday of the year can be an “LSS Sunday,” we’ve identified 10 Sundays in 2026 where the Revised Common Lectionary readings offer an especially fitting opportunity to highlight your congregation’s partnership with Lutheran Social Services and to thank members for their generous giving that makes a life-changing impact for neighbors.

Please reach out to church.relations@lsswis.org if you would like to schedule a speaker from LSS to join you for worship and provide a sermon, temple talk, children’s message, and/or adult forum. Or, you may wish to use some of resources we’ve highlighted in this LSS Sunday Guide, matched to each of these Sundays. Please check back here to find additional resources as they are developed and posted throughout the year.
We are so grateful for all the ways your congregation acts compassionately, serves humbly, and leads courageously. We are blessed to be your partner in ministry – thank you for being a Loving Lutheran!
