Pastoral Message from Bishop Malpica
If you have personally experienced or been witness to any abuse or misconduct by ELCA Clergy, please notify the Synod Office (office@lacrosseareasynod.org or 608-788-5000) and ask for an appointment with the Bishop.
We strive to respond to these situations as quickly as possible, offering care and support to victims and holding clergy accountable.
When Worship Is Disrupted: How Congregations Can Respond and Prepare
Houses of worship, while sacred spaces, are not immune to disruption, emergencies, or violence. The top recommendation from ELCA’s crisis communication experts is simple but crucial: assemble a crisis team before you need one. A well-prepared congregation can respond swiftly, communicate effectively, and ensure safety for all.
