New Grants Available for LCMS Congregations, Schools and Districts 
The LCMS announced the Stand With Your Community Grant Program, in recognition of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation. A total of $1 million is available for this synodwide grant opportunity, with the primary focus being to inspire and empower laity to actively engage in local witness and mercy outreach events and opportunities as a reflection of Martin Luther's unrelenting passion for all to know the true Gospel. LCMS congregations, circuits, schools at any grade level, universities, districts and Recognized Service Organizations are eligible to participate. Grants will range in size from $1,000-$25,000 for projects spanning from a single event to a two year program. For more information, and to download an application, visit www.lcms.org/standgrants.
