Biographical notes:
The successor body of the Lutheran World Convention (1923-1947), the Lutheran World Federation (LWF) was founded in 1947 as an international, free association of Lutheran churches dedicated to fostering world-wide Lutheran cooperation and unity in faith, mission, study, and ecumenical participation. To carry out its work the LWF established national committees from each country with LWF member churches. The USANC was administered as the Executive Committee of the National Lutheran Council from 1947-1966, as a separate standing body from 1967-1976, and as Lutheran World Ministries from 1977-1987.
