By a vote of 958-51, the Churchwide Assembly of
the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) adopted a full
communion agreement with the United Methodist Church (UMC). The
agreement is the ELCA's sixth full communion relationship.
In 2008 the UMC General Conference adopted the same agreement.
The churchwide assembly, the chief legislative authority of the
ELCA, is meeting here Aug. 17-23 at the Minneapolis Convention Center.
About 2,000 people are participating, including 1,045 ELCA voting
members. The theme for the biennial assembly is "God's work. Our hands."...
