Several important actions by the Commission for a New Lutheran Church have helped keep justice central to the purpose of the new Lutheran church.

At its meeting Sept. 23-27 in Kansas City, the CNLC included commissions for women and for multicultural ministries in the design of the church, included a social responsibility clause in a resolution on pension fund investments, and set a goal of 10 percent minority membership in the new church within 10 years.

The trial began in mid-November in Tucson, Ariz., after a lengthy period of pre-trial hearings which focused on jury selection and on various motions for dismissal by the defense. Defense arguments were largely turned down by Judge Earl Carroll.

The confrontation between a pastor and a bishop in western Pennsylvania has brought the attention of many Lutherans to the theological and ecclesiastical issues affecting social ministry and justice advocacy.

An appeals panel has upheld the decision of a disciplinary committee recommending that the Rev. D. Douglas Roth, formerly pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church, Clairton, PA, be removed from the ministry. Investigating panels have also recommended the resignation of two other pastors, Rev. Daniel Solberg and Rev. William Rex.

"Xenophobia, the hatred of the foreigner, is spreading in Europe. Dear friends, the 'hideous beast' is rising again among us, and, as before, governments are being weak and not combating this climate of hate. What starts with xenophobia ends with war.''

So said Bruno Kreisky, former chancellor of Austria, on the 46th anniversary of "Kristall Nacht," November 10, 1984, at Dachau in the Federal Republic of Germany.

The Lutheran churches are in Indian country.

Hundreds of Lutheran congregations are within 10 miles of an Indian reservation. Hundreds more are in cities with large Indian populations, cities like Minneapolis, Sioux Falls, Seattle, Phoenix, Milwaukee and San Francisco.

Most Indian people, either on reservations or in cities, live in poverty and suffer more unemployment, poorer education, higher rates of illness and less opportunity than any other segment of society.
