Welcome to the homepage of ACLC
The Association of Confessing LCMC Congregations (ACLC) exists to provide a unified voice, a theological anchor, and mutual encouragement for congregations, pastors, and laity within the Lutheran Congregations in Mission for Christ who are dedicated to the absolute authority of Holy Scripture and the unconditioned witness of the Lutheran Confessions.
While celebrating the LCMC’s commitment to congregational freedom and global mission, the ACLC seeks to guard against theological drift, apathy, and the creeping influence of cultural accommodation. We believe that true freedom is always bound to the Word of God, and that our mission is most powerfully sustained when anchored in historic liturgical worship and a rigorous devotion to Word and Sacrament ministry.
Free in Christ
Accountable to one another
Rooted in Scripture & the Confessions
We’re not a denomination, we’re a movement. We view the local church as the place where people in the community come to get connected with God and one another. We celebrate the fact that everyone is wired a little differently; it allows each and every one of us to serve according to our own unique strengths, skills and talents.
