About Us

Welcome to Augsburg Fortress, the Publishing House of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. As the ministry of publishing for the ELCA, we are dedicated to serving you with top quality Christian materials that communicate the Gospel, enhance faith, and enrich the life of the Church and the communities it serves. In turn, each purchase you make from us helps us to support your ministry. Unlike other publishers and church supply companies, Augsburg Fortress reinvests all profits made into the development of new quality ministry resources for the church. The result — a virtuous circle that encompasses both the needs of your church and the ability for Augsburg Fortress to provide you with resources to meet those needs

Mission of the ELCA

Marked with the cross of Christ forever, we are claimed, gathered, and sent for the sake of the world.
