Lutheran Early Response Teams (LERT) is a network of volunteers trained to respond in times of disaster. Teams operate out of districts and bring physical aid and spiritual relief to those in need in their area. Find training and volunteer opportunities at the official LERT website.
Your support enables LCMS Disaster Response to respond to immediate and long-term needs following natural and man-made disasters, in the name of Jesus, working through LCMS districts, congregations and partners.
