ACELC NEWS RELEASE: At the regularly scheduled meeting of the ACELC Steering
Committee on the morning of 9/16/2010 (after much discussion about concerns
which have been raised over the proposed "Constituting Convention" in March
2011, to establish the ACELC as a legal entity) we have decided that we will no
longer seek legal corporate status at this time, but simply continue as an
association of LCMS congregations banded together for the common cause of
addressing the errors our beloved Lutheran Church Missouri Synod either
tolerates, endorses or promotes.
This "change of direction" in no way implies that we are taking any less
seriously the concerns we have raised in our Fraternal Admonition, but since
our only desire is to address these concerns, we see no reason to do anything
that might cause confusion or misunderstanding amongst those whose fraternal
participation we are seeking. Since there were many who felt that establishing
the ACELC as a legal entity would get in the way of achieving that goal, we
have determined, for the sake of love, that we would step back from that
position so as to better achieve the stated purpose for establishing this
association of congregations in the first place.
As we put this change into effect some of the documents on the ACELC web site
(www.acelc.net) will necessarily need to be changed. We thank you for your
patience throughout this process as we go about accomplishing this.
Your Servants In Christ,
The ACELC Steering Committee
