Welcome

LWML Utah-Idaho 

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works (Hebrews 10:23-24).
The Lutheran Women’s Missionary League (LWML) is the official women’s auxiliary of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. For 75 years, the LWML has focused on affirming each woman’s relationship with Christ, encouraging and equipping women to live out their Christian lives in active mission ministries and to support global missions.

The Utah-Idaho District of the Lutheran Women's Missionary League serves Northern Utah, Southern Idaho and Northeast Oregon. We have more than 386 members in 24 societies in 4 zones: Utah, Western, Central, and Yellowstone.

A Note from Lois 

Dear Friends,
With our country “opening up” over the past several months, many more LWMLers will be “Running the Race…Looking to Jesus”! All who had their name on the waiting list have been registered and now registration is open to everyone. We praise God for granting us the freedom to gather and worship together, to hear how His Word is being shared around the world, to carry on His work as Lutheran Women in Mission, and to see our friends face-to-face and share a hug. Oh my! What a blessed event this will be! 

Each of our delegates, Judy Lierman, Betty Oloff, Dixie Funk, and Nancy Almodovar has voted online recently for the Mission Goal and Grants on behalf of her zone’s members. Thanks to all the district’s members for your vote. The final results of your vote will be made known during the convention. Nancy’s physician has imposed travel restrictions on her due to an injury. We thank her for casting the votes during the online process and pray for continued healing. Janet Loomis, the Western Zone’s alternate, has agreed to travel to Lexington and will vote in person for the officers and the bylaws. Thank you, Janet, for adjusting your schedule to attend the convention.

Please continue to pray for the safety of all attendees during travel and while being together in Lexington. Especially remember to ask our Lord to be with the LWML Board of Directors and the Host Committee, granting them strength and endurance as they work tirelessly toward the convention’s goal: Looking to Jesus, we run the race set before us and proclaim the joy of the Lord.

Blessings and love,
Lois
