Augustana Evangelical Lutheran Church
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Augustana Evangelical Lutheran Church (previously the Augustana Lutheran Synod) was a Lutheran church body in the United States that was one of the churches that merged into the Lutheran Church in America (LCA) in 1962. It had its roots among the Swedish immigrants in the 19th century. Originally somewhat conservative, it turned gradually more liberal after historical criticism had been introduced at its seminary. It had about 500,000 members when the LCA was formed.
