Registered as EASTERN SYNOD OF THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERN CHURCH IN CANADA / SYNODE DE L'EST DE L'EGLISE EVANGELIQUE LUTHERIENNE AU CANADA
This is an internal division of Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada. Its figures cover this division only, not the whole organisation.
$4,250,069
$3,876,771
It took in $373,298 more than it spent, and retained the difference. Neither is good or bad on its own — charities hold reserves, run capital campaigns, and spend down endowments, and the return does not say which.

It reported giving $1,967,311 to other qualified donees — registered charities and similar organisations. This sits outside the breakdown above, which covers the charity’s own spending. Line 5050.
Eastern Synod of the Evangelical Luthern Church in Canada / Synode de L'est de L'eglise Evangelique Lutherienne au Canada reported spending 77.4% of its expenditure on charitable programs. Among the 19,930 charities registered under christianity that reported the same line for 2024, the middle of the range is 92.0%, and this charity sits at the 27th percentile — below 73% of them.
That is a position in a distribution, not a verdict. Charities allocate costs differently on the same form, and a lower share often reflects how a return was filled in rather than how the money was spent. The cohort counts only charities that reported this line — about a quarter of the register does not, and they are not in the comparison at all.
Canadian charities report how many of their ten highest-paid positions fall in each pay band. Not who they are, and not what any one person earns — the return does not collect that, and it cannot be worked out from what follows.
7 positions reported in total. The form asks only about the ten highest-paid, so a smaller number means the charity reported fewer compensated positions than that.
| Permanent full-time positions | 300 | 7 |
|---|---|---|
| Part-time or part-year employees | 370 | 9 |
| Total spent on all compensation | 390 | $1,040,463 |
Charities that hold significant property not used in their programs must spend a minimum amount each year — the disbursement quota. Eastern Synod of the Evangelical Luthern Church in Canada / Synode de L'est de L'eglise Evangelique Lutherienne au Canada files this schedule; most charities do not.
| Required to spend | 840 | $69,569 |
|---|---|---|
| Counted toward the quota | 860 | $3,445,730 |
| Difference | 865 | $3,376,161 above the quota |
Charities may also carry a disbursement excess forward for five years, so a single year is a slice of a longer calculation rather than the whole of it.
The most recent return this charity has filed — not its position today. Charities have six months to file and the CRA publishes annually.
These are the charity’s own figures. A surprising figure is at least as likely to be a filing error as a finding.
This site cannot confirm whether 107273666 RR 0002 is registered today. Its filings are public open data; current registration status is not, and the CRA’s own listing is the only authoritative source. Check this charity on the CRA Charities Listing.
