Finance and Rules

According to the Synod Report for the year of 2011 posted at the Lutheran Church in Great Britain website:

The Finance Committee did not meet in 2011.
The Rules Committee did not meet in 2011.

Absolutely amazing!

In a year when the Lutheran Church in Great Britain spent more money on legal fees than the entire annual budget of the Lutheran Church in Great Britain - the Finance Committee did not meet one single time!

In a year when new Rules and Regulations were adopted which allowed the Bishop and Dean to take over congregations, claim that some ordinations performed by the previous Bishop are not valid and removed a pastor based on new regulations - the Rules Committee did not meet in 2011!

In a year with so many new rules and regulations and massive amounts of non-budgeted legal fees were spent - the Finance and Rules Committees did not meet!
