My Brother Pastors of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in England


Here is a group picture of all of us who attended the Pastor's Study Week at Cambridge - June 26-30.  I was very much inspired by the clergy of the ELCE.  One pastor described many people in England as "aggressively indifferent" to the forgiveness and love of Jesus Christ.  I asked what he meant by that statement and he said: "It means that many people we witness to don't care about Jesus, don't want to care about Jesus and don't want me to want them to care about Jesus.  So you see what they are up against."  By the way, I'm the guy on the far left.
