As a result of these changes, Faith Lutheran Church (FLC) established a task force to prepare an educational document (TASK FORCE MEMO - click here) for all FLC members relating to the aforementioned changes to the ELCA's social statement.  In addition tomailing a hard copy of the document to FLC members the Task Force is including below numerous hyperlinks to further your study on this issue.  You will see that a full spectrum of opinions on the topic have been included to provide you with an opportunity to examine all sides as well as related references to scripture.
Following the orginal task force memo, a survey was sent out to all FLC members.  The results of the survey and proposed reccommendations by the council (as of 11/2010) are provided here:  Results Memo.
