Position announcement: Executive director, Lutheran Association of Missionaries and Pilots (LAMP)

Celebrating its 50th year, LAMP has been witnessing to and nurturing faith in remote areas of northern Canada since 1970, with over 5,000 children, youth and adults impacted each year. LAMP is a Recognized Service Organization of the LCMS.

With an annual budget of approximately $1 million, LAMP currently has over 400 active volunteers, approximately 2,000 donor relationships, and a small and dedicated staff of full-time and part-time employees in Canada and the U.S.
