Throughout the month of May 2023, the 40th Anniversary of LUM Social Justice Ministry was celebrated. In 1983, the LUM leadership began to intentionally get engaged in social justice. This decision has made a remarkable impact in advocating for our neighbors in need and lobbying for policy changes that benefit Indiana families. Here are some of the 40th Anniversary highlights:
- LUM Social Justice Ministry – 40th Anniversary Party
- LUM Social Justice – Vision for the Future – Letter from Wes Tillett, LUM executive director
- Social Justice Presentation by Joe Micon
- A Conversation with Jud Dolphin
- LUM Volunteer of the Month – Patti O’Callaghan
