Dear Friends of LVC, I am honored and excited to introduce myself as the new President of Lutheran Volunteer Corps. For me, this role is deeply personal. As an LVC Volunteer in 1993–94, my year of service was both transformative and formative, shaping a lifelong commitment to social justice, community, and service. Many of my closest friendships and most meaningful relationships began through the shared LVC experience, and the lessons I learned continue to guide me today. Over the past three decades, my work has taken me through nonprofit, clinical, and academic settings—from direct service and clinical practice to teaching, mentoring, and organizational leadership. Along the way, I’ve carried with me values central to LVC: a commitment to equity and anti-racism, a strong sense of community, and a belief in walking alongside others in service and solidarity. My experience as an LVC Volunteer laid the foundation for a leadership approach that has grown and deepened over time—shaped by humility, deep listening, and trust in the power of people coming together around a shared purpose. As I begin this new chapter with LVC, I am excited to learn from and connect with our Fellows, alumni, partners, donors, Board, and staff. Together, we have an opportunity to build on LVC's strong foundation, expand opportunities for service, strengthen our partnerships, and share more broadly the impact of this remarkable community. One of the enduring gifts of LVC is the way it creates connections that last long after a year of service ends. I am grateful to be returning to this community in a new role, and I look forward to meeting many of you and hearing your stories in the months ahead. Thank you for welcoming me into this role. I look forward to all we will accomplish together as we continue advancing LVC's mission. With gratitude, Lisa Kiesel,President, Lutheran Volunteer Corps ... See MoreSee Less
