Things are getting nasty in Mobridge

Things are getting nasty in Mobridge, S.D.

Bishop Zellmer met with Trinity Lutheran Church in Mobridge on July
28. The meeting was scheduled to be a Q & A on the ELCA sexuality
decisions. In addition, the bishop decided to make it a forum on the
ministry of the pastor and to call for a vote to remove the pastor.
The pastor believes the ELCA actions violate the teaching of
Scripture. They have had discussions about leaving the ELCA. The
congregation is divided.

The bishop is recommending that the pastor be removed. With this
recommendation, only a simple majority vote is needed to end the
pastor's call to the congregation.

The audio of the bishop's presentation is available on You Tube. It
is divided into five sections, the fifth section includes the change
in the meeting.

Here is the link to the audio on You Tube:
