Writings, General 1987-1995

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/84837887

This series contains the unpublished writings of Bishop Chilstrom. His Reports to Synods, Pastoral Letters, and On Occasion were intended for internal ELCA reading. The materials in the On Occasion file were written to ELCA staff during the ELCA's nascent period and are an indicator of the concerns of a newly formed church. The Reports to Synods give a good overall picture of the ELCA's programs and activities during Bishop Chilstrom's terms. These files are arranged alphabetically. The Greetings, Speeches, and Articles are a collection of Bishop Chilstrom's various writings, but contain more speeches than articles. Speeches include those given at colleges and seminaries, at installations of synodical bishops, to ELCA Church Councils, to the Conference of Bishops, at Churchwide Assemblies, at the acceptance of the ELCA into the Lutheran World Federation (LWF), at churches, and at other ELCA functions. Other writings include articles for the Lutheran Forum. These files are arranged chronologically.
