The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) is a dialogue partner in USCCB ecumenical discussions and belongs to the Lutheran World Federation, which represents the Lutheran side in international dialogue with the Catholic Church.

The ELCA and the LWF--the usual suspects. Extremely LIBERAL "Lutherans." The real Lutherans, the confessional ones, are not party to this farce.

That's encouraging. I can't vouch for the "Catholics" who are party to same farce; but I'm not one of them.

“The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod (LCMS) has also participated in the first 9 discussions with the Roman Catholic Church and will also participate in the upcoming 11th round. Unlike the ELCA, however, the LCMS has not come to an agreement with the Roman Catholic Church due to what the LCMS considers to be crucial differences in the understanding of faith, grace, sin, etc.”
