Women’s roles

What is the role of women in the WELS?

There is a long answer to your brief question. What I can do is point you to some resources that will address your question from Scripture. These resources speak of men’s and women’s roles in marriage, in the church and in society.

A section of This We Believe, a statement of belief of our church body, addresses men’s and women’s roles in the church. This link will take you to that section of the document.

This next link will take you to a doctrinal statement on “Man and Woman Roles” found elsewhere on this website.

Finally, you might be interested in a book from Northwestern Publishing House: A Bible Study on Man and Woman In God’s World.

These resources will provide you with a well-rounded answer to your question.
