The World
The First Lutheran Children's Sunday School classes collect weekly offerings that they use to support mission work. The Adam Lehman family has been in Puerto Rico ministering to the needs of people hungry for the word of the Lord. They have been there for 10 years through the Missouri Synod Lutheran Church. They visit Cleveland when they can. Pastor Lehman always gives the congregation a progress report of their mission work and the growth of the Lutheran Church there. We are fortunate when we get to hear him deliver a sermon as well.
The Lutheran Women Missionary League is an active mission organization at First Lutheran. On Tuesday it is considered quilting day. The ladies make needed items for people all around the world. They collect money for Blankets that are badly needed by those less fortunate. Their work aid the Lutheran World Relief Organization and many other missions. www.lwr.org

Gideons International
The Gideons International is reaching out with the Word to those who don’t know Christ every day, making the most of each opportunity God gives us. You often see Bibles in Public Settings that are provided by the Gideons. You will see these around the world and in all languages. First Lutheran supports this ministry.
