The Episcopal Church is a "Full Communion Partner" with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America through the statement "Called to Common Mission" ratified in AD 2000. Thus:

Lutheran (EL C S*A) Ping!

* as of August 19, AD 2009, a liberal protestant SECT, not part of the holy, catholic and apostolic CHURCH.

Alleluia! Christ Ascends with shouts of joy!

The LCMS holds firm to sound doctrine. Any fleeing ELCA’s are welcome. My brother’s ELCA church joined the Lutheran Church Mission for Christ, another conservative home for those fleeing the apostacy in the ELCA.
