GRACE LUTHERAN MEN

The primary mission of Grace Lutheran Men in Mission is to strengthen the spiritual, intellectual and social development of the men of the Church, and to deepen commitment to Christ and participation in the life of His Church. Grace Lutheran Men in Mission (GLMM) provides spiritual and financial support to the ministry programs of Grace and to the ministries of the South Carolina Lutheran Men in Mission (SCLMM) as well as the ELCA Men in Mission Master Builders Program. All adult male members of Grace Lutheran Church are members of GLMM. GLMM adheres to the guidelines and constitution of the SCLMM. GLMM is an auxiliary of SCLMM of the South Carolina Synod of the ELCA.

GLMM provides the meal and entertainment at the yearly Shrove Tuesday pancake and sausage supper. GLMM sponsors two steak suppers one in the spring and one in the fall. Proceeds from these events are used to support the ministries of GLMM and SCLMM. It is a goal of GLMM to strive to be an outstanding unit according to the guidelines set forth in the SCLMM Directory.
