Local Mission

Applications for the 2026 LCANZ Local Mission Fund open on 1 July 2025, and you can start preparing now with the following steps.

With support from an LCANZ Local Mission Fund Seed Grant, St James Lutheran Church Hervey Bay has launched the Community Connection and Growth Project.

St John’s Lutheran Church Emerald celebrated nine young parishioners enjoying their first communion or confirmation, along with two new members.

This year at St Andrews Lutheran Church Tallebudgera, which serves the southern Gold Coast and the Tweed Coast, we had a great service of celebration for Reformation Day.

Three Queensland churches will be supported in their outreach endeavours through inaugural grants from the LCANZ’s Local Mission Fund.

Do you know someone who is curious about the gospel, Jesus, or the Christian faith, but you just aren’t sure of the next steps?

The fund will help agencies as they seek new ways of reaching their neighbours and communities with the gospel. Applications close 26 August.

Local mission ideas that need financial support could benefit from the LCANZ’s new Local Mission Fund, now open for expressions of interest.

The Council for Local Mission has released its latest communique, which can be downloaded here.
