Biographical notes:

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 Churches. The USANC assisted the LWF-DWS in carrying out its development projects around the world, including the CDS which was created in 1962 to encourage development work in global partnership. In 1987, LWM was terminated with the establishment of the Evangelical Lutheran.

Church in America.
