Equipped for the Work: The 4:12 Project

Inspired by Ephesians 4:12 – “to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ.”

At Lutheran High School, we believe in the power of Christ-centered education to transform lives. Each day, our students grow spiritually, academically, and relationally as they are equipped to live with purpose, lead with humility, and serve with compassion. But for some families, financial barriers make this opportunity feel out of reach. While LHS provides financial aid, and support from our association congregations and endowment helps significantly, the need is greater than our current resources allow.
To help bridge this gap, we’re launching the The 4:12 Project: Adopt-a-Student Program—a chance for members of the LHS community to come alongside families with verified financial need and help ensure their students can attend Lutheran High. These families have already gone through our FACTS financial aid process and demonstrated both need and a desire for their child to grow in this Christ-centered environment.
When you adopt a student, you’re not just making a financial gift—you’re helping equip the next generation of young men and women to build up the body of Christ. You’re investing in students who are being formed in faith, purpose, character, and leadership.
How It Works

—Families who qualify for assistance will be confidentially matched with donors who wish to help bridge the tuition gap.

—Donors may contribute any amount—whether through a one-time gift or recurring support.

—100% of every gift goes directly toward student tuition.

—Donors will receive periodic updates on the impact of their generosity, while family confidentiality is maintained.

The need is real, and the opportunity is powerful.
We invite you to prayerfully consider supporting The 4:12 Project and making a lasting difference in the life of a student and their family. Your generosity equips them not only to attend Lutheran High School—but to live out the Gospel far beyond it.
