About 300 members of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) attended this important conference. The interim executive director, the Rev. Dr. Javier Alanis reported that the conference was very well received and could serve as the basis for future events. The texts of the lectures and sermons are now available at http://www.lsps.edu/trisynod.html.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6830943965666320071-7301867034615773710?l=latinochurch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Latino Churchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13166963787435954588noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6830943965666320071.post-35420326285319371862010-01-29T19:41:00.000-08:002010-01-29T19:45:28.525-08:00Welcome to this first post on The Latino Church.
