In 1946, it established its own seminary, also in Mankato, called [[Bethany Lutheran Theological Seminary]]. Throughout its history, ELS congregations have actively sponsored Christian elementary schools.
The synod carries on an active home mission program and now has 130 congregations in many states. It also has foreign missionaries in Peru and Chile in South America and in Ukraine, Latvia, and the Czech Republic ([[Czech Evangelical Lutheran Church]]) in Eastern Europe.
