Lutheran World Convention. American Section.

The Lutheran World Convention (LWC) was founded in 1923 by members of the National Lutheran Council and the Allgemeine Evangelisch- lutherische Konference in Germany to coordinate post World War I international Lutheran relief efforts and promote Lutheran cooperation. Its American Section, composed of members of the National Lutheran Council, establisheed in the mid-1930s, guided LWC activities during World War II as European members were restricted in war-time events. It was instrumental in the formation of the LWC's successor organization, the Lutheran World Federation, established in 1947.
