LARGE CONGREGATION IN VIRGINIA TAKES FIRST VOTE TO WITHDRAW FROM ELCA

St. John's Lutheran Church, located in southern Roanoak County, Virginia, voted with a 70% margin, to leave the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America over that body's decision to ordain practicing homosexual clergy.

    AMEN TO ST. JOHN'S LUTHERAN CHURCH IN ROANOKE COUNTY, VA. MAY MANY OTHERS FOLLOW THEIR LEAD SO THAT THE elca WILL COLLAPSE AND WITHER AWAY TO NOTHING FOR THEIR DEFIANT DISOBEDIANCE TO GOD AND HIS WORD. PLEASE FLEE FROM SUCH ORGANIZATIONS SO AS NOT TO CONTAMINATE YOUR OWN SPIRIT AND SOUL.
