MLC Day – May 6, 2026


GOAL REACHED - THANK YOU!

Because of your generosity, we have surpassed our MLC Day goal of $210,000.
We are grateful for the outpouring of support from friends of Martin Luther College. Your gifts are making a direct impact by supporting students as they train to serve as pastors, teachers, and staff ministers.
Thank you for being part of MLC Day! Together, we are YouKnighted in MLC's Mission.
Through the Congregational Partner Grant Program (CPGP), your generosity helps reduce student tuition and ease financial burdens, so MLC students can focus on their preparation for ministry.
There is still time to give. Additional gifts will continue to support MLC students and strengthen this important work.

"For someone who gives to support students like me, I would just say thank you. It
means so much to know that they're contributing in this way to helping and to continue to keep
us in your prayers, because this is only the beginning, and there's a lot more coming."
-Elena Brauer

HOW IT WORKS: The Congregational Partner Grant Program

MLC Day gifts support CPGP, a matching grant program in which your generosity directly impacts ministry students. Congregations across our synod invest in their students at MLC through CPGP. MLC then matches those gifts. This year CPGP will contribute $1.9 million to student tuition accounts — reducing student debt and making ministry preparation more attainable.

THANK YOU FOR BEING THE MATCH

Because of you, this goal was possible.

Your MLC Day gift:

      • Helped match congregational gifts
      • Reduced student financial burden
      • Strengthened partnerships across our synod
      • Advanced MLC’s mission to train future called leaders
      • Supported a student who may one day serve your congregation or school

You made this day possible.
Continue the impact.

Together, we are YouKnighted in MLC’s Mission.
