'You Can't Be Serious!'
http://lutherancolportage.blogspot.com/2011/04/you-cant-be-serious.html
The Missouri Synod in Minnesota is seriously considering closing the University of Minnesota Lutheran Church. TBH and I visited there when we moved back to Minnesota and considered becoming members there. This congregation is well-respected by Lutherans throughout the area.
Incredible. Just incredible.

"Madison student chapel next?"
Looks like it's already coming down, crumbling that is...in Lutheran worship practice. At the chapel dedication service if it weren't for the gown Trapp is wearing, you'd think it was an E-Free cong. complete with praise band, screens, sans altar and font:
