CLC Chair and LCiGB Bishop Tor B shares Bishop Munib Younan's message: A Cry from Jerusalem, "I read this as a prophetic message opening a window for a alternative way to approach the destructive escalation of violence and hatred." "If only the world leaders would invest half as much money and energy into peacemaking as they invest in war. It is time to end violence over the Holy Land," says Munib Younan, Bishop Emeritus of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land. Read his full message here. Photo: LWF/Romans Wong

Our Activity
Ecumenical Relations
Through ecumenical relationships and in many other ways Lutherans strive for reconciled diversity in the one body of Christ.
Support for Members
The Council provides opportunities for Lutherans in Britain to learn more about their history, theology and church life.
Communications
The Lutheran Council of Great Britain produces information about its work and about the Lutheran community in Britain.

Donating to the CLC
Donating to the Council of Lutheran Churches helps to keep Lutheran churches alive across the country for generations to come. We are called to pass on the foundations of faith to future generations and supporting all to live the gospel in daily life. Why not consider making a gift to the CLC so future Lutherans can find their home here in the UK?
Lutheran Student Chaplaincy
The CLC Lutheran Student Chaplaincy not only supports Lutheran students across the country but is built on a Christian ethos of hospitality welcoming students of all faiths and none. The chaplaincy works through the 'virtual' community of the International Lutheran Student Centre. You can contact the Lutheran Chaplain for Students by email. You can also sign up for the Chaplaincy newsletter or visit our Facebook page to see regular updates of activities. We are still socially connecting, even if we are physically distant!
