The United Lutheran Mission Association (ULMA) is a Lutheran church organization in the United States.

History

The United Lutheran Mission Association was established at a meeting in Chicago, Illinois, on July 16, 2005. There, representatives of two congregations that were formerly members of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod (LCMS) began work on establishing Confessional Lutheran congregations in the United States. The current congregations of ULMA are: Pilgrim Lutheran Church in Decatur, Illinois; Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Forsyth, Illinois; Faith Lutheran Church in Jackson, Michigan; and Trinity Lutheran Church in Austin, Texas. The member churches of ULMA are in altar and pulpit fellowship with the Australian Evangelical Lutheran Church.

Structure

There is no central office or centralized organizational structure other than the individual representatives from the member congregations who meet twice each year. ULMA recommends that pastors train at the Walther Theological Seminary. The ULMA has clergy trained in the seminaries of other Lutheran denominations such as the LCMS, the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod, and the Evangelical Lutheran Synod.
