Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod : ウィキペディア英語版
Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod

The Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) is a North American Confessional Lutheran denomination of Christianity. Characterized as theologically conservative, it was founded in 1850 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. As of 2012, it had a baptized membership of 380,728 in 1,278 congregations, with members in all 50 US states and 4 provinces of Canada.〔 It is the third largest Lutheran denomination in the United States.
WELS is in fellowship with the Evangelical Lutheran Synod (ELS) and is a member of the Confessional Evangelical Lutheran Conference (CELC), a worldwide organization of Lutheran church bodies of the same beliefs.
WELS and ELS are independent Lutheran denominations and are not part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), which is structured to have "synods" within the denomination. Thus, the term ''"synod"'' as used by the ELCA refers to middle level administrative districts in different regions of the United States (example: Illinois Synod of the ELCA), whereas in the case of the WELS, ELS, and Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod (LCMS), ''"synod"'' refers to the entire church body.
