WECLO – Outreach to Immigrants and Refugees to Canada

Chinese ESL class at First Lutheran Church for Pancake supper with the congregation.

WECLO – Windsor/Essex County Lutheran Outreach, supports a multi-cultural ministry in Ontario. Lay missionary Javed Khan and his wife offer hospitality through meals and holiday celebrations for immigrants and refugees. This ministry shares the Word of God and provides opportunities to teach ESL (English as a Second Language) classes and Bible studies, host sporting events for the young at heart, and help newcomers settle into a new life in Canada.


I want to support outreach to immigrants and refugees.

Street Ministry Outreach in Regina

Rev. Jacob Quast, Domestic Mission Director and Rev. DJ Kim Street Chaplain

Reaching out with the Gospel to those on the streets is a daunting task. LCC has been blessed to have Missionary-at-Large, Rev. DJ Kim, serve as street reach chaplain in Regina. He has described the police car he uses as a “mobile church” in which he is able to reach out with both God’s Law and Gospel to many young people associated with gangs and/or criminal activities. The time he spends with members of Regina’s police force also enables him to care for those first responders who regularly face tremendous evil and heartache. Rev. Kim is uniquely situated to share the life-giving and life-changing Gospel to all these individuals, and has witnessed the Holy Spirit touch many lives through the Word that is proclaimed. LCC is truly blessed to have such a dedicated and gifted servant of the Word providing this vital ministry to those in need in Regina.

I want to support troubled youth and young adults in Regina.

French Ministry & Mission Support, Canada

Rev. Dr. Somers has been faithfully serving as LCC’s primary Missionary-at-Large since 1994, both overseeing and serving our French Ministry in Quebec. There are currently mission congregations in Montreal, Quebec City, St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, and Sherbrooke. This ministry continues to produce theological and devotional resources used by French speaking Lutherans around the world. More recently, this ministry has partnered with the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Haiti to provide online theological education to seminary students in Haiti and other French speaking nations. To carry out this vital ministry and mission work, LCC financially supports our Missionary-at-Large, as well as the travel expenses and materials for this ministry.

I want to support Rev. Somers in Quebec.
