ULMA Mission Intent

With God’s help the United Lutheran Mission Association will endeavor to:

Ø Find opportunities to establish and support confessional Lutheran congregations whose members and pastor share the Association’s theological position as expressed in our Constitution.

Ø Identify and support confessional Lutheran pastors who are qualified and willing to lead an ULMA mission congregation and who support the Association’s theological position as expressed in our Constitution.

Ø Identify and unite with other existing Lutheran congregations desiring to participate in the building of God’s Kingdom through the pooling of mission funds and the formation and support of confessional Lutheran mission congregations.

Ø Serve as a resource to existing Lutheran pastors, congregations or members within an existing congregation who are troubled by the theological direction of the synod or ecclesiastical body to which they belong.

Ø Accomplish our work primarily through lay leadership, volunteers and an organizational structure that eliminates bureaucratic waste and inefficiency.
