		<p>The records consist of reports, newsletters, and board minutes of
		  state and regional Lutheran welfare organizations and local Lutheran welfare
		  institutions (predominately child-care, care for the elderly, and hospitals)
		  that were sent to either to American Lutheran Church headquarters or to the
		  Welfare Division of the National Lutheran Council. These records were
		  accumulated by the Archives of the American Lutheran Church at Wartburg
		  Theological Seminary, Dubuque, Iowa. They are not organizational records of the
		  ALC Social Service Division. </p>
