ELCA Good Gifts
Your gifts to ELCA Good Gifts support the ministries of the ELCA in nearly 80 countries around the world. You may choose the gift that means the most to you from the ELCA Good Gifts catalog. ELCA Good Gifts may be given in honor of someone special. They make the perfect birthday or Christmas gift for the person who has everything or doesn't want more “clutter” due to downsizing. Cards are available online to be printed, mailed, or emailed to share the news of your gift with the person being honored.
