Mission Statement

Lutheran Volunteer Corps, a community of faith, unites people to work for peace with justice.

Description

Lutheran Volunteer Corps, a community of faith, unites people to work for peace with justice. A national, volunteer service program, LVC partners with full-time volunteers and over 100 social justice organizations and ministries in nine urban areas in the U.S. In addition to working for justice, LVC volunteers live together in intentional household communities of 4-7 people, deepen their spirituality, and encourage simple, sustainable living. Living and working along side those in their placements, LVC volunteers actively respond to the gifts and needs of their communities. Partnering with their placements, volunteers provide direct service, organize communities, and advocate for environmental stewardship, peace and justice. LVC volunteers and placements are currently working in: Washington, DC, Baltimore, and Wilmington, DE on the East Coast; Chicago, Milwaukee, and the Twin Cities, MN in the Midwest; Seattle, Tacoma, and the San Francisco Bay Area on the West Coast.
