I believe that the LCMS Lutherans have been viewing sexual abuse in there schools and churches as singular events. I have been told by someone high up at the National LCMS that " we (LCMS) just don't have a lot of sexual abuses". If you would like to add to this list (LCMS schools or churches), please send me a news article link or information (sexual offenders name, school, city and state).

There are many LCMS Sexual Abuses and I will be adding them as time permits! Please send LCMS Sexual abuses to derekschmid@lcmschildren.org that are not on this page.
