Here in the LCMS we still use Latin in parts of our liturgy.

Nice. I've always wondered....is there any German?

By the way....I think this “Catholics and Respectful Others” thread, as NorthMountain called it, has been a smashing success. Everyone on both sides gets a gold star for this one. :)

This is definitely an accidental experiment worth repeating. Sometimes I feel like I want to ask a respectful question on the Protestant Caucus threads but am a little hesitant to do so.

(Apologies to those who already got this via private message...I wanted to post this generally and hit private reply by accident.)

There used to be, but during WWI, the synod as a whole switched from German to English in order to ease fears from those who doubted the loyalty to the United States.
