The ELCA celebrated our 35th anniversary at the 2022 Churchwide Assembly. This is a time for us to look back at the people and events that have shaped our church. On April 30, 1987, the American Lutheran Church, the Lutheran Church in America, and the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches united to form the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. They gathered in Columbus, Ohio for the Constituting Convention of the ELCA, where the ELCA Churchwide Assembly convened again in 2022. • ________________________________________________________________________________ • The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) is one of the largest Christian denominations in the United States, with nearly 3.5 million members in more than 9,100 worshiping communities across the 50 states and in the Caribbean region. Known as the church of God's work. Our hands, the ELCA emphasizes the saving grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ, unity among Christians and service in the world. The ELCA's roots are in the writings of the German church reformer Martin Luther. • • For more information, please visit http://ELCA.org • • Other programs, ministries or ways to get involved: • • Find a Congregation: • https://ELCA.org/findacongregation • • Give to help the work of the ELCA and its ministries: • http://ELCA.org/givenow • • Subscribe to get more information: • https://community.elca.org/elca-email... • • ELCA World Hunger: • http://ELCA.org/hunger • • ELCA Youth Gathering: • http://ELCA.org/Gathering • • Resources for ELCA Congregations: • http://ELCA.org/Resources • MusicBed SyncID: • MB01ZXIMJUGNBFP • MB01WCTXCGIIPAM
