Genetics is a not-so-new field of science that is rapidly advancing. The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) has decided to write a social statement on genetics, pondering questions and mysteries surrounding "contemporary developments in genetic research, technology and their use". The task force commissioned to write the social statement is asking for feedback until October 15th. Please take time to read the social statement and fill out the response form found at the end of the draft. The social statement can be downloaded by clicking on the following link:

And then "Draft Social Statement on Genetics"
How can we continue to live faithfully with all the mysteries surrounding genetics??
