Well, I'm done. The National Council of Churches, to which the ELCA belong, really piss me off, but this is the final straw.

There's Wisconsin Evangelical and Missouri Synod churches near here, so I'll have to check them out.

I am a convert from ELCA to the Missouri Synod and I couldn't be happier. I feel that my church is a community of believers, and it is a source of strength for me. My uncle helped start a Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran church in Waukesha, and I know that he really happy with the results of his church. Because, he has made a lot of friends through his church, that have the same beliefs that he does.

I guess all that I am saying is that WELS and the Missouri synod are so much better than ELCA. I am not trying to trash the ELCA because they do good work in certain areas, such as using their church for meeting areas for AA, but I don't think I have ever seen an adult bible study at an ELCA church. (maybe I missed it in the bulletin.) To me I got the impression that the ELCA is more of a country club church than a place to focus on the Word of God.
