The Lutheran Sunday School at Home Program was started in 1944 in Canada and in 1945 in the United States by the Norwegian Lutheran Church of America to serve children in remote locations removed from a local congregation, or those who were too ill to attend a local congregation. In 1963 the Sunday School at Home office serving the United States, formerly in Fargo, North Dakota, was consolidated with the office in Outlook, Saskatchewan. With the autonomy of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Canada in 1967, the program was turned over from The American Lutheran Church's Board of Parish Education to the Board of Canadian Missions of the ELCC. Enrollment declined in the 1960s as transportation options improved and as the services of congregations were more readily available.
