"Foundations for the Future" Records 1988

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/84837884

This series contains all drafts and the final printed version of "Foundations for the Future: the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America at the Threshold of a New Millennium." The pamphlet began as a paper delivered at a conference at California Lutheran University. The final draft was prepared for the ELCA Church Council, Cabinet of Executives, and for distribution to voting members at 1988 synod assemblies. It served as a means of communicating Bishop Chilstrom's thoughts on ways Lutherans could make a smooth transition to the new Lutheran church body. All files are from 1988 and are arranged from the first draft through the final printed version.
