Emmaus Conference UOJ Guru Jay Webber Quoted the Waterloo Lutheran Seminary President - You Won't Believe What It's Like Now!
UOJ Is the ELCA Way


Waterloo Lutheran Seminary, Waterloo, Ontario.
Mrs. Ichabod earned an MA in German literature at UniWat,
spawned from the "little red schoolhouse,"
whose UOJ Pietism led to the following...
 These three UOJ advocates broke the ice for a shameful
public WELS-ELS-LCMS dogma cuddle. Emmaus 2015.

GJ - "Another Obscure Pietistic Hero
          Webber enjoys citing Pietists and baptizing them as orthodox or confessional Lutherans. The seldom-cited Quistorp gets that treatment from Webber, which would make church historians gasp in wonder. Strangely, Webber begins his essay citing Professor Caroll Herman Little, who once served as president of the seminary I attended – Waterloo Lutheran in Ontario, Canada. Robert Preus once mentioned Little to me and doubtless taught Little as an example of a ULCA pastor who agreed with the LCMS about doctrine. One little problem remains – the Canada Synod was Pietistic. For example, when one of the patriarchs of the synod visited a home and saw the boys playing cards, he said nothing. On Sunday, old Reble delivered a blistering sermon on the evils of playing cards – a typical Pietistic sermon for that era. Like most readers I have to wonder why Little’s opinions about justification matter to anyone."

Most of our worship takes place in Keffer Memorial Chapel, a flexible worship space that also hosts academic lectures, panel discussions, community meals, yoga classes, and even sessions for students to de-stress with friendly dogs!
 Then - Keffer Chapel had liturgical services
and some of those silly experiments
that permanently alienated me from the entertainment crowd.

Now - UOJ has brought the Latte Church effect to Keffer Chapel,
plus dogs and various world religions.
