LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Persis Ministry
Launched in August 2008, the Lutheran Church Charities K-9 Comfort Dog Ministry is a national
human-care ministry embracing the unique, calming nature and skills of purebred Golden
Retrievers. The LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs are a bridge for compassionate ministry, opening doors for conversation about faith and creating opportunities to share the mercy, compassion,
presence and proclamation of Jesus Christ.
LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs are working animals, trained to interact with people of all ages and
circumstances who are suffering and in need. The dogs participate in scheduled and special
events. Dogs are permanently placed with churches, schools and other ministries involved in
Christian human care by LCC. Permanent placement includes full training for handlers and
caregivers along with ongoing support, coaching and training. LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs live in the
homes of assigned caregivers.
Lutheran Church Charities currently has over 130 LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs serving in more than
27 states. LCC operates three training facilities in Illinois. LCC never charges those we serve.
We are able to do that with the support of donors. If you would like to help Persis in her ministry

Romans 16:12
“Great Tryphena and Tryphosa, those women who work hard in the Lord. Great my dear friend Persis, another woman who has worked very hard in the Lord.”
Persis is a trained LCC K-9 Comfort Dog at King of Kings Lutheran Church in Glenpool, Oklahoma. She serves every day in the community in which she is placed and is deployed in times of disaster and crisis to bring comfort to all those affected, including first responders and the volunteers who serve them. Persis is a friend who brings a calming influence and allows people to open up their hearts and receive help for what is affecting them. Persis is available to visit your church, group, care facility, veterans and all first responders.
