Lutheran Congregation Keeps Gay Pastor
Submitted by pastordale on Wed, 2007-08-15 11:12.
The support for the Rev. Bradley Schmeling at St. John's Lutheran Church came a day after the national assembly of the ELCA in Chicago urged bishops to refrain from defrocking gay and lesbian ministers who violate a celibacy rule. The assembly's action fell short of permitting ordained gays churchwide.
Except while they don't allow it, they don't forbid it, either.
