The Montana Synod is one of 65 synods of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. The ELCA was formed in 1988 as a merger of the Lutheran Church in America, the American Lutheran Church and the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches. The roots of the Montana Synod can be traced back to 1881 when three Norwegian-American families settled along Sweet Grass Creek near the community of Melville in south central Montana. The Montana Synod with its 28,000 baptized members in 125 congregations (5 in Wyoming) and other preaching points, is served by 204 pastors in congregational and specialized ministries. In addition, 11 Deacons also serve our ministries. We have 6 persons in the candidacy process preparing for future church leadership and 113 persons in the Lay Pastoral Associates program.

The MaaSAE Girls Lutheran Secondary School in Monduli, Tanzania is a first-of-its-kind residential school for daughters of the Maasai and other semi-nomadic people that offers girls the chance to make a brighter future for themselves, their families and their communities. The school is a project of Operation Bootstrap Africa based in Minneapolis. Currently more than 325 girls from impoverished backgrounds are part of this nurturing, supportive educational community. Since 1999 more than 650 girls have graduated and more than 300 have received postsecondary training at colleges, universities and vocational schools. Many graduates are now working and contributing in the fields of education, business, tourism, community development and health care.
In 1984 the requests for help coming into the Kalispell’s Help Net – First Call for Help - information and referral line were not able to be met.
In answer to the problem the Kalispell Ministerial Association developed Neighbors in Need, which is a fund of last resort that is supported by area churches, individual contributors, special events and grants, and which focuses on homelessness and meeting the needs of those who may fall through the cracks of other social service programs.
We are working hard to help those impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic. Donations may be mailed to: PO Box 8721, Kalispell, MT 59904-1721

Freedom In Christ Prison Ministry is an ecumenical worshiping community inside the walls of Montana State Prison at Deer Lodge, Montana. We welcome ALL Christians to join us in worship, Bible studies and pastoral visits. Because inmates at Montana State Prison are not finacially able to support Freedom in Christ Prison Ministry, the ministry must survive on outside donations from generous people like yourself. Our expenses include the pastor's salary and benefits, worship, program and administrative expenses - pretty much the same kinds of expenses as a small congregation's.

In 2004 Kalispell’s Community Kitchen & Feeding the Flathead joined forces under their individually chosen umbrella of Matthew 25:31-40 as their basis for ministry as 501c3s. Currently more often referred to just as Feeding the Flathead, they are an all-volunteer soup kitchen that rarely serves soup. They welcome whoever shows up with a good attitude and a good appetite. They strive to provide a cheerful, family friendly place, in churches like Bethlehem, to eat a meal and to visit with others.
