Congregational Services
Across Michigan, there are Lutheran churches, schools and service organizations of vastly varying sizes and resources. The Mighty Fortress Foundation aims to offer services that will benefit not just some of these ministries, but all in our community of faithful.
A partnership with the LCMS Foundation has brought the services of a Gift Planning Counselor to Michigan! If you would like to learn more about how your earthly gifts can make an eternal impact through the work of Mighty Fortress Foundation, please contact Julie Burgess at julie.burgess@lfnd.org.
If you would like to suggest an idea for a grant or congregational service, please email us at info@mightyfortressfoundation.org. Your input will help us achieve the Foundation’s mission.
We are blessed to have a ministry partner like Mighty Fortress Foundation. Their ministry shares a common goal of Kingdom expansion in Michigan.
