The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (in 1999) and the The Episcopal Church (in 2000) both adopted an identical version of “Called to Common Mission.” The particular language used in The Episcopal Churchs resolution was shaped by that churchs legislative processes. The effect of the action was the same as that of the voting members of the 1999 Churchwide Assembly of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, namely, adoption of the text of “Called to Common Mission.
