The ONE campaign is uniting people around the world ONE by ONE to make poverty history. The ONE Lutheran campaign challenges your congregation to become a ONE Lutheran Congregation by organizing a “ONE Sunday” and achieving three of the following five goals:

  • Feature the Millennium Development Goals in a sermon.
  • Use ONE resources in Christian education classes for youth and adults.
  • Collect an offering for the ELCA World Hunger Appeal
  • Meet with federal legislators to advocate for the Millennium Development Goals.
  • Organize an Offering of Letters" and have participants sign the ONE Declaration. Send letters and declarations to the ELCA Washington Office

All ONE Lutheran Congregations will receive a ONE Lutheran banner (similar to the picture above) to display at their place of worship. Please contact the ONE Lutheran coordinator at onelutheran@elca.org or 202-626-7942 for more information.
