Established in 1977 as the successor body of the U.S.A. National Committee of the Lutheran World Federation (USANC), LWM was the joint agency of the Lutheran Church in America, The American Lutheran Church, and the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches. Its programs focused on world mission, theological and social study, volunteer service, publicity and communication, and international scholarship exchange. LWM was governed by a Board of Commissioners and an Executive Committee. The LWM Board served as the Board of Trustees. In 1987, LWM was terminated with the establishment of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
