Lutherans May
Endorse Same
Sex Unions
(AP) — The Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America decided Monday to undertake its first major
study on whether to endorse the morality of homo­
sexual relationships.
The church's national assembly was also to vote
later on a separate proposal to start the process of
repealing the church’s ban on actively homosexual
clergy.
The new study will involve the Chicago headquar­
ters staff, the church’s bishops, its 65 synods — or
regional units — and colleges and seminaries. The 5.1
million-member denomination will also conduct open
hearings and local focus groups on the issuei
An interim report with possible recommendations is
due in 2003 and the final report in 2005.
The Rev. Ronald Rude of Denver said theologians
are divided on homosexuality so Lutherans must ask
“does the Gospel override the Bible” in this case. The
church had previously concluded it did regarding other
issues such as slavery, women’s role in the church and
divorce, he said.
The Rev. Kim Lengert of Reading, Pa., told of a
homosexual couple that asked her for a church bless­
ing ritual. “We are about to deny the crumbs from the
table. We have a part of our congregations that is
starving spiritually,” she said.
For technical reasons having to do with the church’s
governance, the gay clergy ban can’t be completely
repealed in a single vote. Rather, the national as­
sembly can only start the process of repealing the
ban.
When the gay clergy debate began Saturday, retired
Presiding Bishop Herbert Chilstrom of Pelican Rapids,
Minn., said he had changed his mind and wanted the
church to accept homosexual relationships. It was
under Chilstrom’s leadership that the church council
set the clergy ban and the bishops’ conference advised
congregations against blessings for same-sex couples.
