Our Mission
The mission of our central organization, the Laestadian Lutheran Church, and its congregations is:
- To preach the gospel of repentance and remission of sins to the people of our communities, our nations, and throughout the world so that they might become partakers with us of the grace that God offers sin-fallen man in His Son, Jesus Christ.
- To nurture and strengthen the faith of the believing and root our children in Christian faith in God’s kingdom.
- To awaken and inspire Christian values and ethics, soberness of mind, love of homeland, and responsible citizenship among the people of our nations.
In order to accomplish this mission, the Laestadian Lutheran Church arranges and holds services at home and abroad, teaches and supports the teaching of God’s Word among children and youth, publishes literature, newspapers, magazines, and recordings. It also works with its sister organizations around the world.
