Lutheran Central will be discontinuing the reaction page for a short period, starting July 30th, 2002. We will leave all of the letters we have received up until that point on the web site, but will not accept any new letters of reactions or opinions until August 19th, 2002.  To see the archived letters, simply scroll down.  

We are discontinuing the reaction pages in preparation for our newest development at Lutheran Central - a monthly Lutheran Central ezine called "Nine And A Half  Theses".  It will include articles from people in the Lutheran world concerning relevant topics including outreach, teacher's ministries, and a "layman's corner" of practical advice for laymen and pastors.

Lutheran Central has appreciated and continues to appreciate the letters of opinion that we have received and are looking forward to opening the reaction pages again.  

In Christ,
Editorial Staff @ LC
