In 2015 LCA International Mission sought a significant way to recognise the 50th birthday of the LCA and the 500th anniversary of the Reformation.

Our God is a global God

By Katrina Rohrlach | 0 comment | Categories: Cambodia, Volunteers and Supporters

Why is international mission important to God? That was the first question I asked before leaving for Cambodia and Singapore with the GROW Leadership team. Sharing the gospel is a worthy thing to do but why would God call me from my local community and church to travel to a developing country with a haunting […]

Have you ever imagined being a museum caretaker, waiting for the sun to go down in the hope that ancient artefacts come alive? Imagine this fantasy world within a tiny museum in the Adelaide Hills housing thousands of extremely rare and valuable antiquities, dating back to pre-Christian times.

Meeting God in the unknown

By Hanna Schmidt | 0 comment | Categories: Thailand, Volunteers and Supporters

My name is Hanna and I volunteered in Thailand with LCA International Mission.

By Dr Greg Lockwood | 0 comment | Categories: Thailand, Volunteers and Supporters

It was a fourfold celebration that Friday afternoon in the lovely chapel at Luther Seminary Thailand in Bangkok: First and foremost, as this was 24 March, the eve of the Annunciation festival, we celebrated the Archangel Gabriel’s announcement to the Virgin Mary that she would bear the Christchild. ‘For with God nothing will be impossible.’ […]

Blessed by culture change

By Hanna Schmidt | 0 comment | Categories: Thailand, Volunteers and Supporters

Last December I volunteered at Home of Grace, which supports unmarried pregnant women, mothers and babies. I felt a childlike sense of wonder learning about Thai culture. One […]

Free to serve others

How did we find ourselves being ushered through the Diplomat’s queueless desk at Yangon airport, to being met by a throng of excited smiling people with bunches of flowers and becoming the centre point for many photos?
