Letter from District Bishop Andrew
We invite you to take a moment to read a pastoral letter from District Bishop Andrew, addressing the recent decision at the 2024 General Convention of the Lutheran Church of Australia to allow the ordination of both men and women. In this letter, Bishop Andrew offers words of reflection, acknowledging the varied emotions within our community and calling for continued unity, love, and mutual respect.
