February is the month in which we recognize Lutheran Hour Ministries within the Church and share how Lutheran Hour Ministries makes a difference in the lives of people all over the world!
LHM is best known for The Lutheran Hour®, the world’s longest-running Christ-centered radio program. It is heard weekly by around 600,000 people over more than 900 radio stations and by still more people over XM Satellite Radio, the American Forces Network, and the Internet. Many listeners of The Lutheran Hour are not members of
LCMS congregations.
A Spanish-language version of The Lutheran Hour called Para el Camino was introduced in December 2008; it is available in selected radio markets and also via the Internet.
LHM’s Woman to Woman® with Phyllis Wallace is a broadcast program focusing on issues of faith and life from a woman’s perspective. It is aired over nearly 300 radio stations and the Internet.
Beyond radio programming, Lutheran Hour Ministries serves congregations in a variety of ways: providing workshops, tools, and resources for developing effective local outreach strategies; hosting servant trips; supporting men’s ministry through the LHM Men’s NetWork; offering daily and seasonal devotions; and more.
LHM honors its commitment to Bringing Christ to the Nations—and the Nations to the Church by supporting International Ministry Centers in more than 30 countries—even in places where it is dangerous to proclaim the Gospel. Each International Ministry Center is staffed primarily by nationals who understand their cultures and reach out through culturally appropriate means.
There is much more to do. You can support LHM and help them to reach many more people with the message of salvation through Jesus. Please pray for God’s continued blessing on LHM’s mission and work.
