Ephphatha Lutheran Mission Society

Ephphatha Lutheran Mission Society Established by the Michigan District of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, this Society's purpose is to establish ministry to the Deaf and Hard of Hearing

ELMS is dedicated to serving and supporting the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community with the Gospel. We work with 4 specific congregations and have an even broader base internationally. Our hope is that you use this page to spread the Word of God to those you know, Deaf, Hard of Hearing or Hearing, and in this way put the Gospel in the hands of an ever increasing community of believers.
