WELS SP Mark Schroeder - The Manchurian Candidate

Mark Schroeder began contacting me in August, 2008 and stopped after May, 2010. DP Jon Buchholz, another "conservative" pretender began contacting me in 2008. I imagine they wanted to spin the news, which is what WELS does through Christian News.

I suspect that Schroeder was a Church and Changer from the beginning, a point he denied. Whether he was or not, he has gone overboard to protect, promote, and fund them all.

When Mark was asked about The CORE, he said the situation was distorted by lies, etc - coming mostly from one blog.

I imagine he meant this blog, since no one else has the courage to address The CORE in public. Years ago, a group in that WELS district met on their own to deal with Tim Glende, The CORE, and Pastor Ski. I do not know who they were, because I had nothing to do with them. Supposedly some of them formed a part of the Intrepid Lutherans. District President Engelbrecht treated them like dirt and protected Ski and Glende, to the point of publishing a paper in defense of pastoral plagiarism.

DP John Seifert, who hates justification by faith, is ordering every Michigan District person to quit the Intrepids. Meanwhile, one of his pastors got a free trip to China to visit a founder of Church and Change, who is not under a writ of excommunication. This founder must be a great intellect, by WELS standards, because he published a badly written DMin paper through Gordon Conwell.

Schroeder could not wait to get Paul Rydecki off the ministerial list - and publicize it. WELS pounced on the parish to foreclose on the mortgage. But like his old boss Jeske, Ski has been studied and pondered for years.

Just to clarify for SP Mark Schroeder - I have had a copy of the allegations against Tim Glende and Ski for some time, a careful record of their malfeasance, but an even clearer record of the Synod President's and the District President's.

Engelbrecht and Schroeder have known and done nothing.

Engelbrecht and Schroeder have known the facts and lied about them.

A married couple has repeatedly tried to get DP Engelbrecht to respond. He stonewalls. Rick Techlin could have told them that. The Intrepid group in that area could have told them that as well.

Thanks to the public media we all know that:
1. Ski had to post bond in Milwaukee. Does anyone know the facts about his court appearance?
2. Glende wrecked his first and only solo parish, which can barely pay his monthly bill now to WELS. Glende must be passionate about debt, because he ran a paid-for successful congregation into a deep hole of debt, rebuilt at great cost on the bleeding edge of a cornfield.
3. St. Peter's in Freedom, Wisconsin, a wealthy congregation, got an enormous grant from WELS to buy the stinky, old, failed bar in downtown Appleton for the boys. And WELS also loaned them the money to fix up the place. Ski bragged about that, so blame the lies on him. Should we believe the Appleton newspaper published falsehoods?
4. WELS did NOT reveal the money wasted on the bar. They boasted about other Church and Change projects, but not the failed bar. Should we believe that Schroeder let more than $500,000 be given away and loaned without his knowledge? Is he a poor leader, or a bad liar?
