Church in Society: A Lutheran Perspective articulates the teaching of the ELCA on the church’s relation to society and its public presence and responsibilities. The statement begins with the claim that the witness of the church in society flows from its identity as a community that lives from and for the gospel. It sets forth the basic affirmations that structure how faith is active in a love that calls for justice in relationships and structures of society. The statement also identifies as basic commitments the church’s institutional witness in society, the baptismal vocation of individual Christians, and the church as a community of moral deliberation. This document was the first ELCA social statement, adopted in 1991.
Follow these links to find resources for understanding this social statement:
The social message “Homelessness: A Renewal of Commitment” notes that homelessness persists as a reality for hundreds of thousands of people in the United States, despite its immense wealth and resources. The message states that housing is a fundamental right even though policies and practices of government and economic institutions are not adequately responding. It reminds us that God heard the cries of the homeless in the Bible and that working for justice with and for homeless people is doing God’s will and work in the world.
Christian love does not provide ready-made, one-size-fits-all solutions to the crisis, but the message calls Christians to walk with the homeless in their struggles and provides guidance as together we pursue just, appropriate and sustainable solutions that uphold human dignity.
You can read or download the full social message on “Homelessness: A Renewal of Commitment” in English or en español. This social message was adopted in 1990 by the Church Council of the ELCA.
Faith Communities Are Showing Up During This Religious Season to Express Immigrants Are Sacred
In light of the horrific and continued cruelty against the immigrant community, we call on all faith communities to engage in prophetic witness and actions for immigrant justice from March 28th- April 6th during this important season for faith communities.
We are at a moment when our faith calls each of us to be a bold and truthful witness – demanding ICE and Border Patrol to get OUT of our communities, release immigrant families from detention, and stop deportations. Faith communities are taking action to ensure Congress doesn’t provide any additional funds to ICE or CBP, to stop using our hard-earned tax dollars to separate families and say “Not One More Dollar.”
Now is the time to collaborate, connect and join in shared actions to strengthen the movement for immigrant justice, led by the interfaith faith community in the tradition of sacred resistance and non-violent actions.
Here’s What You Can Do: Organize Actions or Vigils
Go to your local ICE office, detention center or Congressperson’s office during Passover and Holy Week and host a vigil or public witness action to call for no more funds to be allocated to ICE and CBP for their ongoing dehumanizing campaign of family separation, detention and deportation under horrific conditions.
Strategic Locations to Consider: Detention Centers, ICE Offices, ICE Holding Facilities, Newly Purchased Warehouses that are being turned into Detention Centers
