The congregations listed below represent a net loss of baptized members for the ELCA of at least 240,779 since August 2009. Add to this number the membership of approximately 40 churches missing from our list, the tens of thousands who left to start new congregations, and the multiplied thousands who have left the ELCA on their own, and the numbers are staggering.

AWM’s list as of December 20, 2010 shows 334 congregations that successfully have taken their second vote to leave the ELCA, as well as 105 congregations that have successfully taken their first vote and now await taking the second vote.

AALC - The American Association of Lutheran Churches;
AFLC - Association of Free Lutheran Congregations;
CLB - Church of the Lutheran Brethren;
ELCM - Evangelical Lutheran Conference and Ministerium;
FELC - Fellowship of Evangelical Lutheran Churches;
LC-I - Lutheran Church-International;
LCMC - Lutheran Congregations in Mission for Christ;
LC-MS - Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod;
NALC - North American Lutheran Church

At this point our list lacks the names of around 40 congregatons that have taken their first and/or second vote. If you know of congregations not listed here, please advise us at: wordabide@aol.com
