Augsburg Fortress

In our ministry as the publishing house of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, we create substantive and innovative materials to support the ministries of faith communities in communicating the good news of God's liberating grace.

Our resources help congregations to:

Prepare enlivening worship

• Evangelical Lutheran Worship features congregational resources, study and leadership materials, music resources, and gift ideas.
• Sundays and Seasons is a planning system (online and print) that provides everything needed to support lively worship ministry: liturgy, music, preaching, and visuals.

Proclaim the gospel with music

• Augsburg Music offers worship music for choirs and instruments (print and downloadable), hymnals, songbooks, and supplies.
• Prelude Music Planner is a collaborative online tool for browsing and buying music, building music plans, and managing music collections.

Enhance and nurture faith

Book of Faith resources encourage and support Bible-based study and prayer.

• Colaborate and Here We Stand are multi-year Lutheran confirmation curricula, with resources for leaders and students.
• Catechisms and other learning enrichments for children and adults shed new light on Lutheran ways of life for modern times.
