Lutheran World Ministries (Agency). General Secretary.
Biographical notes:
Established in 1947 at the founding of the Lutheran World Federation (LWF), 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 cooperated with LWF in its studies through its Office of Studies (1970-1976). After the USANC became LWM in 1977, it continued its study coordination through the LWM Office on Studies.
In 1987, LWM was terminated with the establishment of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
