"Do not be alone with minors while on probation."
"Required to disclose conviction..."
CLC (sic) Pastor David Koenig, on the extreme left, is a great friend of Church Growth
and simply loathes Lutheran doctrine.
Is Gutsche also a former WELS pastor? Yes. See below.

Lutheran Church - Canada Pastor Reinhard Dittmer made a point of sending me the funeral and sermon he prepared for Gutsche, showing that Horst was indeed a man for all synods, especially ELCA.
"He enjoyed learning and took a variety of theological, cultural and language courses at Northwestern College, Watertown, Wisconsin, USA; the Lutherische Theologische Hochschule in Oberursel, Germany; the Alliance Francaise in Paris, France; the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington USA and at the Institute of Hispanic Culture in Madrid, Spain.
Horst was ordained in 1975 as a pastor of the Lutheran Church in America at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Edmonton. He went on to serve as pastor for over 40 years in bilingual German – English congregations in Canada (Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Vernon, Barrhead, Onoway and Mystery Lake) and in the United States (New York and San Francisco).
He was active and held leadership positions in various church and cultural organizations including Secretary and President of the German Conference of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in North America/ (delkina.org)."

| Horst Gutsche phoned me to claim the dismissal of his court case made him innocent! Why was he forbidden to be alone with minors? The dismissal clearly states otherwise - it simply means the court is done with the parole or any other stipulations from his arrest and conviction. He was an ELCA pastor in San Francisco at the time - and ELCA dumped him. The Canadian version of ELCA hired him as a pastor. |
