Connect, Develop, Inspire Poster

The new, double-sided, ELEA poster embodies the spirit of learning through play while embracing the core values of being an ELCA (Evangelical Lutheran Church in America) Lutheran. The poster serves not only as a celebration of childhood play but also as a testament to the holistic approach to education advocated by ELEA and the enduring values of the ELCA Lutheran tradition. It invites viewers to reflect on the profound impact of play in shaping young minds and the timeless values that guide them on their journey of learning and faith. We encourage schools and centers to publicly display the posters and consider distributing them to new families and staff.
