Dear President Dr Matthew Harrison, I have just read your letter to President Yoshida of the JLC. You are correct to draw his attention to this problem in the Church at large. From the infomation gleaned from your letter, it must lay heavy on your heart that this cpould and has indeed happened. The effort that the LCMS has put into a mission of so long ago must also be hurting. It is also oblivuos that LWF has used some tactics not conduvice to being 'sola scriptura'. every blessing as you and the LCMS sort out this problem, yours in Christ, Neville
