September Mission Support Memo: Where Faith Meets Justice

Our September 2025 Mission Support Memo offers a glimpse into Mary's path from accompaniment to advocacy as a Young Adults in Global Mission in Mexico City. Mary had her sights set on YAGM from early on and was eager to engage in this ministry. She was introduced to the core values of mutuality, inclusivity, vulnerability, empowerment and sustainability, allowing her and all YAGMs to explore what it means to join ongoing ministries — to serve, to learn and to share. Learn how, through her YAGM year, Mary grew in her passion to work for justice and give dignity to all God’s children.

We encourage you to also check out a new initiative of the ELCA, the Church Property Resource Hub, developed in response to requests from synod and congregational leaders for support in navigating the challenges and opportunities that buildings and land present for both congregational vitality and the broader mission of the Church.

We share our gratitude for everyone who engages with our Mission Support Memo. When you read, share and engage with this memo, you help us to tell the stories of our collective ministry. You can even get the memo in pdf too!
