Lutheran World Relief
Lakeridge Lutheran directly supports the good work of LWR in two ways:
- Fair Trade: On the second Sunday of each month following worship we offer for sale coffee, chocolate and other Fair Trade products to help local and overseas farmers earn a living wage.
- Quilting: For many years Lakeridge Lutheran quilters have created hand-made quilts—over 100 per year! These quilts are provided for people in need at home and abroad.
Lutheran Disaster Response
Katrina. Haiti. Chile. These are some of the natural disasters to which we have contributed funds for Lutheran Disaster Response.
