Support Displaced Ukrainians
| Gifts to the LCMS, including Mission Central, are restricted to providing aid and assistance to persons displaced by the war in Ukraine. The LCMS will issue grants to/through our Lutheran partners in the region best positioned to provide compassionate care in Christ’s name to those fleeing the conflict. The situation is developing, and the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod pledges to use every gift wisely to accomplish the greatest good possible in ways that deliver the Gospel as human needs are met. | ||||

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ: In 1801, Jonathan Chapman, age 26, appeared on the shores of Liking Creek, Ohio, planting apple seeds. Five years later he was seen again navigating the Ohio River with two canoes lashed together, carrying his cargo of apple seeds.
Legends began to grow. He was given a new name: Johnny Appleseed. According to W. D. Haley, the writer for Harper’s Monthly Magazine who recorded the story, the purpose of his life was to plant apple orchards on the farthest verge of the pioneer settlements. In spite of dangers and wars, he kept planting apple seeds. Why did he do it? He evidently was filled with a compulsion. (Continued here...)
