LUTHERAN WORSHIP MATERIALS ON DISK

A series of Evangelical Lutheran Church in America worship
resources will soon be available on disk along with related
copyright-licenses designed to help congregations in planning and
publishing weekly worship folders.  Included are official rites
of the church, new and alterative worship materials for weekly
and seasonal use, and other materials required to support
congregational self-publishing.  Plans call for a sampling of
electronic resources at the ELCA's 65 synod assemblies this
spring with the first round of products available for purchase in
the fall.  "These resources represent a tremendous departure from
past practice and are a direct response to congregations'
requests," said the Rev. Paul R. Nelson, ELCA director for
worship.  The ELCA's Division for Congregational Ministries
worked with Augsburg Fortress, the publishing house of the ELCA,
to make these resources available.
