Proclaim the Wonders God Has Done: 1918–2018

The ELS has always had a commitment to Lutheran elementary education. It has been questioned if our present synod would ever have been organized if it had not been for the support of those who had been educated in Christian day schools. We may properly say that we owe our present existence as a Biblical-teaching synod in large part to the Christian day school. Today eighteen ELS congregations operate Lutheran elementary schools or preschools for 1,329 students.
