Lutheran World Convention

The Lutheran World Convention (LWC) was founded by the National Lutheran Council and the Allgemeine Evangelisch-lutherische Konferenz to coordinate international Lutheran relief efforts after World War II and to promote Lutheran fellowship and cooperation throughout the world. John A. Morehead (1867-1936) was instrumental in its organization and served as executive committee chair (1923-1929) and president (1929-1935). The LWC's successor, the Lutheran World Federation, was established in 1947.
