Living Into the Future Together

Living into the Future Together (LIFT) is an ELCA task force commissioned by the ELCA Church Council to develop and recommend options for the future of the ELCA in light of its identity, changes in its environment and its call to God’s mission.

The LIFT Task Force seeks input as it explores these two questions:

  • What is God calling this church to be and to do in the future?

  • What changes are in order to accomplish these tasks more faithfully?

If you are one who cares about the future of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, please consider joining the conversation:
