LONDON (ELCA) -- The Rev. Timothy Dearhamer describes the
congregation he serves here "as an example of what the Lutheran Church
aspires to be -- multicultural and multiracial." Dearhamer, an
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) pastor from Oklahoma, said
regular worshipers at St. Anne's Lutheran Church include more than 30
nationalities, not unusual for Lutheran congregations in Great Britain.
