Stay tuned!

• Through the ELCA Advocacy Action Center, you can encourage your congressional representatives to end the pause in U.S. foreign assistance, reinstate funding of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNWRA) for Palestinian refugees, and implement our Lutheran values on other issues.
