This triennium, support the translation and production of meaningful Lutheran resources in languages other than English through the LCMS National Offering.

Our Mission

The mission of Operation Barnabas is to ignite a positive transformation in the lives of veterans and first responders through faith, action, and encouragement.

Our Vision

The vision of Operation Barnabas is to eliminate veteran homelessness, addiction, and suicide by acting strategically and timely to make veterans whole again. With one-to-one mentoring and meaningful, measurable, and manageable action steps, Operation Barnabas is a community for those seeking a hand up, not a hand out. We are seeking those ready for transformation and victory rather than regression and victimhood. Not everyone is ready.

We believe that God created all human beings in His image. Therefore, we believe that human life is sacred from conception to its natural end; that we must honor the physical and spiritual needs of all people; following Christ’s example, we believe that every person should be treated with love, dignity.

Our Mission ~ To meet the physical, social, and spiritual needs of Muslims and other immigrants and refugees in the United States by sharing the love of Jesus in practical and culturally relevant ways.
