Policy Council
The work of LOPPW is guided by a Policy Council representing the six ELCA synods with congregations in Wisconsin. The role of the Policy Council is to support ELCA churches in Wisconsin in their mission to make Christ known as they live out the confessional and scriptural call to advocacy. Policy Council members serve as a liaison between LOPPW and their synod, and provide support and counsel to the Director.
