Local Opportunities

Find ways to serve in your area

Chances are, great things are already being done by the ELCA congregations, Lutheran social ministry organizations (SMOs), and outdoor ministries in your area.

• Find an ELCA congregation where you can tap into service opportunities in your community.
   
• Check with an organization affiliated with Lutheran Services in America near you to see if volunteers are needed.
   
• Locate a camp near you or check the job opportunities page for the latest listings from ELCA-affiliated camping and retreat centers.
  
  
• Many ELCA congregations make a global impact without leaving home through Lutheran World Relief Parish Projects.
