I'm thinking this has something to do with the papacy. Just a guess though. ;)

Of course the LCMS has its 'lay ministers' which include dames flinging uncertain sacraments over the heads and into the mouths of those informed of the terrible shortage of pastors.

Functionalism, thy name is Wauwatosa... and Missouri.

Hmm, Being from Canada where we have a different Lutheran thing going on I've always wondered what was with that WELS group and the only answer I get is "prayer and some views about the office of ministry". This shall forever be the key to my understanding what's going on. Thank you Mr. Fiene.

As I requested of you back in September... Finally! A satire on WELS Lutherans (of which I am one). It's been a while in coming, but worth the wait. Thanks Pastor Fiene. Too funny.

@RLOfferdahl But just what about the WELS is he satirizing...?

[Michaelrwright92]

Funny, great work.

Serious inside baseball on this one. It would be my function to explain this to everyone. :)

[TheLutheranSatire]

@danatnr Yes, Dan. The fewer the people who get the joke, the funnier it is to me.

[TheLutheranSatire]

For the record, I am very thankful to the WELS for providing faithful congregations to my loved ones who moved to an area where the LCMS wasn't up to the task.

Ouch.
