The #ELCA celebrated our 35th anniversary at the 2022 Churchwide Assembly. This is a time for us to look back at the people and events that have shaped our church. On April 30, 1987, the American Lutheran Church, the Lutheran Church in America, and the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches united to form the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. They gathered in Columbus, Ohio for the Constituting Convention of the ELCA, where the ELCA Churchwide Assembly convened again in 2022. #ELCAcw
