Synod FinancialsDesignated Giving includes gifts that congregations send to the Synod to forward to the Synod’s Ministry Partners and Sister Synods or to the ELCA for distribution to ELCA missionaries and programs such as World Hunger, Lutheran World Relief and ELCA Disaster Response. These gifts are forwarded to the Ministry Partners and the ELCA the month after they are received. In addition to the designated giving that passes through the Synod, most congregations support programs and work within their local communities, and many congregations send their contributions directly to the synod’s Ministry Partners and ELCA programs rather than forwarding them through the Synod.
