Lutheran World Ministries (Agency). General Secretary.

Established in 1947, the USANC was administered by the NLC Executive Committee from 1947-1966. Upon termination of the NLC in 1966, the USANC became a separate standing body. In 1977, it was reorganized again as Lutheran World Ministries, a joint agency of the Lutheran Church in America, The American Lutheran Church, and the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Chruches. The USANC and LWM assisted the LWF-DWS in its mission service program around the world. In 1987, the LWM was terminated with the establishment of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
