LIFE SUNDAY 2023: “Blessed For Life”
“Blessed For Life” is Lutherans For Life’s theme for Sanctity of Human Life Sunday, which is set for January 22, 2023. Your congregation can observe Sanctity of Human Life Sunday on that date or at any time during the year.
Our Life Sunday 2023 theme is based on Psalm 41 (with an emphasis on verse 2).

This Life Sunday, Consider an Offering for LFL
On January 22, 2023, many Lutheran churches across the country will observe Sanctity of Life Sunday. As part of this, dozens of congregations will collect an offering for Lutherans For Life (LFL). If yours is one, we thank you and praise the Lord! This support is also vital since 95% of our funding comes from individuals and churches. We receive no subsidies, tuition, insurance, or government reimbursement, etc.
Of course, if January 22 is not a workable Sunday, churches are free to select any one they wish this winter or any time during the year. Also, if your congregation does not collect door offerings, gifts that are budgeted or directed by a mission committee, endowment board, LWML, etc., are most welcome.
Send gifts and offerings to:
Lutherans For Life 1101 5th Street Nevada, IA 50201-1816
Questions regarding LFL or its programs can be directed to the national office at 888.364.LIFE (5433) or [email protected].
