Services for Rostered Church Workers

Ministry Development

LCEF offers two service areas to provide support and assist you in ministering to our children, congregations and communities.

For pastors:

Under our Ministry Development service area, we offer Pastor Coaching Ministry. Coaching is appropriate for pastors who desire to strengthen their effectiveness in today's rapidly changing culture.

For those working with children:

Stewardship Education can be an integral part of your plans for students and young members. Our Kids Into Discipleship and Stewardship (K.I.D.S.) Stamp program and K.I.D.S. Count resource can be used in elementary schools, Sunday schools or home-school settings. Students learn not only biblical stewardship principles, they begin to think about the best use of resources in their own lives.

For school administrators:

In addition to demographic studies and mailing lists so that you can learn who resides in your community and reach them directly, we offer resources for marketing your school.

Conserve Resources with LCEF's Help

Renovations to facilities often save utility costs and free resources for ministry. Consider an LCEF loan to create more energy efficient buildings or update for better accessibility. The Architectural Advisory Committee Laborers For Christ can provide recommendations and help implement your projects.

Traditional or Roth, LCEF Offers It

Unsure about whether to open a traditional or a Roth IRA? There are many points to consider; this brochure may help. LCEF offers both types, whichever path you choose. By investing with LCEF, your retirement funds earn a steady, competitive rate while benefiting LCMS ministries. Making funds available now and for the future is our mission.

LCEF is a nonprofit religious organization; therefore, LCEF investments are not FDIC-insured bank deposit accounts. This is not an offer to sell investments, nor a solicitation to buy. LCEF will offer and sell its securities only in states where authorized. The offer is made solely by LCEF's Offering Circular. Investors should carefully read the Offering Circular, which more fully describes associated risks.
