In 1844, C.F.W. Walther founded the German magazine, Der Lutheraner, for the members of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS). Walther set out of a fourfold purpose for the newsletter: First, to make known the doctrine, treasures and history of the Lutheran Church. Second, to show how the Evangelical Lutheran Church is the true church of Jesus Christ on earth. Third, to help Lutherans know how to believe, live and die in the faith. Fourth, and finally, to uncover the false doctrine afflicting Lutherans of his time. Der Lutheraner served these purposes until the LCMS stopped being published in 1974.

Even though The Lutheran Witness was founded in 1882 by the English Synod of Missouri, Ohio, and Other States, it still carries on the tradition began by C.F.W. Walther. The Lutheran Witness is now one of the oldest denominational magazines in the world.

Founded in 1847

The roots of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod trace back to 1847, when Saxon and other German immigrants established a new church body in America, seeking the freedom to practice and follow confessional Lutheranism.

Initial members, which included 12 pastors representing 14 congregations from Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Michigan, New York and Ohio, signed the church body’s constitution on April 26, 1847, at First Saint Paul Lutheran Church in Chicago, Ill.

Originally named The German Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Missouri, Ohio and Other States, the name was shortened to The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod in 1947 on the occasion of our 100th anniversary.

LUMA is short for Lutheran Urban Mission Agency. We've been around and involved in the greater Kansas City Metro area since 1969. In the very beginning we incorporated under the name the "Lutheran Mission of the Good Shepherd." Since 2008, reflecting on our communities and targeting exactly who we are for Kansas City, we branded ourselves as Lutheran Urban Mission Agency. LUMA is an agency that seeks to support congregations. We are not a congregation. We DO support congregations in their mission endeavors and ministry developments. We work hard at connecting congregations to mission activity and ministry opportunities in our Urban Core areas.

Blessings  Abound Thrift Store is a Christian not for profit organization called  to serve the metro Kansas City Community by selling and recycling donated merchandise in order to provide aid to people in need.
