ELCA is the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the largest US Lutheran church, generally very liberal.
The Episcopal Church is the US branch of the Church of England, both very liberal with a small minority of conservative holdouts.
Ohmygosh, I can’t believe I messed that up!!! Yes, I knew that ELCA was Lutheran, sorry about that. I was trying to ascertain how the U.S. Episcopal Church (of which there is one, yes?) fits with the Anglican Church (of England, internationally, etc.?) Lightman, will check out your link, thanks.
Again, I apologize for the mistake.
