Anton Lutz
Serving the Lord in Papua New Guinea

Bio

As a missionary of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS), Anton Lutz has been serving in Papua New Guinea since 2004. His work in Papua New Guinea has included infrastructure development at Kaiam Airstrip (2005-2015), community mobilization and HIV education (2004-2010), hospital equipment maintenance, assisting in the Gutnius Lutheran Church conflict mediation process, and undertaking various “impossible” tasks alongside mission partners.

Anton’s extensive experience living and working in the most remote communities of Papua New Guinea gives him unparalleled opportunities to serve others with God’s love.

Anton now works with diverse partners to combat the rising tide of sorcery accusation-based violence in Papua New Guinea. Often a first responder, he provides aid and rescue to torture survivors, as well as raising awareness in some of the most remote and violent communities.

Anton grew up in Papua New Guinea where his parents were LCMS missionaries since 1986. He attended Valparaiso University, Valparaiso, Ind., before returning to serve in Papua New Guinea.
