The Olde Synodical Conference is waking up, slowly, but still in denial. How many ads has Thrivent bought for the ELS? Will the WELS-ELS-ELCA-LCMS combine continue? |

Thrivent Financial Neutrality Policy Concerns
On February 6, 2014, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans announced a “Financial Neutrality Policy” regarding funding of charitable organizations. Thrivent now categorizes abortion and homosexuality as merely “social issues,” while we continue to regard them as moral/doctrinal issues at odds with the Word of God. We remain "deeply concerned" with these new developments and urge Thrivent members to contact the company with their questions and concerns.
Thrivent, a non-profit fraternal benefit society, has no "official" connection with the Evangelical Lutheran Synod. You may read the new policy here:https://service.thrivent.com/forms/thriventchoice/neutrality.html
