Lutheran Entrepreneurs, Inc. was founded in 2008 in part to address the increased ethical dilemmas 21st century business people face daily. Members network, refer business to one another and encourage one another to cultivate Christ-honoring business practices.

Our Three-fold Mission Statement - to Witness, Model and Inspire:

We strive to respond to opportunities to bear Christian witness in the workplace, model Biblical practices to future generations of business leaders, and inspire one another to make business choices that glorify God.

Vision

• Internships - Develop relationships with high schools and colleges so we can coordinate student internships with member-owned businesses.
• Scholarships - Establish a scholarship fund and selection committee to award students who exhibit promise as business leaders who acknowledge Christian principles in business.
