Our values derive from our Lutheran identity. They are a deeply rooted response to God’s grace as revealed through Jesus Christ. Lutheran World Federation values:

Dignity and justice

Compassion and commitment

Respect for diversity

Inclusion and participation

Transparency and accountability

As a communion, we are freed by this grace to participate in God’s vision and mission for the world.
