Hi all,

I am an Episcopalian, but for over a year, I have been attending an ELCA church in a suburb of LA.

This is because TEC and ELCA are in communion with each other, this ELCA church is pretty close, and the local Episcopalian church doesn’t even have a priest. Also I grew to like the minister and congregation.

As my life enters a transitional stage, I feel called to the ministry. I studied religious studies during college and did a religious service corps year during the pandemic (just saying this to say this is something I have thought about for a while and am not doing on purely a whim).

But I am not a member of an Episcopal parish, I am a member of a ELCA church, but am not a Lutheran.

So what steps do I do?

Thank you
