Q: As a Christian ministry, what does it mean to be
the hands and feet of Jesus?
A: God works through His people to be His presence.
Lutheran Church Charities is a ministry of presence. In
all that we do, whether every day or in times of crisis
and disaster, LCC brings the presence of Jesus Christ!
We aim to do what Jesus did and still wants to do
through us.
Q: How have the LCC Ministries been present during
the coronavirus pandemic?
A: During the pandemic, people have been afraid, felt
isolated, and have been wondering if this will ever end.
Right away, we knew we had to do something since
we were limited in being physically out with people.
However, we know that when a door closes, God opens
a bigger one!
We launched the LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Ministry ® virtual
visits to connect with others—such as individuals,
teachers, students, nurses, emergency room staff—to
stay in touch and provide support and love during
these challenging times. So far, the LCC K-9 Ministry
Lutheran Church Charities (LCC) is a
faith-based ministry with a mission
to share the mercy, compassion,
presence and proclamation of Jesus
Christ to those who are suffering
and in need. Tim Hetzner, president
and CEO, is passionate about serving
others in their time of need through
presence and prayer, by being the
hands and feet of Jesus in all that
they do.
