Is Lutheran Men in Mission part of the ELCA?

Lutheran Men in Mission is the men’s
ministry of the
ELCA operating as a 501(c)(3) organization.  Legal mumbo
jumbo to follow soon.

What’s a region and which one am I in?

When the ELCA was formed in 1988 it
divided the United States into nine geographical regions.
These regions generally include a group of states but in
some cases regional boundaries divide states.  Our
Synod Leaders page
lists regions and synods which should give you enough
information to decide which region you live in.
