I have heard that the Shrinkers are pulling together their forces and meeting at Patterson and Gurgel's church down south.
Nothing like some Rock and Roll and the hopes of a safari to boast the morale.

GJ - If this is true, it makes sense. Apostates are 100% political. If they get their way at a convention, they say, "This is the highest level of synodical authority. We must follow what the convention says." Thus they maneuvered the Church Shrinkage Mission Vision Statement into a vote and built a bureaucracy (Perish Services, Mission Counselors, Staff Ministry) around it, while denying the Church Growth Movement existed in WELS.
But the Shrinkers were well and truly clobbered by the entire convention, so they have to meet to see how they can overturn the vote in some underhanded way. They spent the last two years opposing the elected Synod President, so why would they bow to the convention this time? There is a lot to sweep under the rug...and grants to be had.
