Wednesday, August 26th, 2009

The ELCA Churchwide Assembly took place from August 17 to August 23 and considered a number of issues ranging from Malaria to Full Communion with the United Methodist Church, but the agenda items which received the most attention dealt with issues of human sexuality. Bishop Mauney and Bishop Hanson reflected on the decisions of the Assembly.
