Many of these social ministry organizations were established in the mid-19th century as hospitals or orphanages. New organizations continue to be developed as contemporary needs are identified. More than a quarter-million volunteers and staff members treat acute and chronic illnesses of body and mind, provide care for the whole person in need, and strengthen and empower individuals and families to care for themselves, for one another, and for their communities. Services are open to all people regardless of religious affiliation. Indeed, the vast majority of people who receive care from Lutheran service organizations are not Lutheran.{{Citation needed|date=March 2017}} See also
