"Our chaplains will continue to follow the Military Chaplain guidelines as approved by the [LCMS] Synod. While we recognize the service of ELCA personnel, we can no longer commend our LCMS military personnel to ELCA chaplains without increasing and grave reservations."

Rev. Harrison is the right man in the right position at this time. He is thoughtful and will make sound decisions about how the LCMS interacts with the ELCA.

I am glad he and the commission that studied this are working to keep the chaplancy faithful.
