The Norwegian Lutheran Church in America (NLCA) came together as the result of the union between the United Church, the Norwegian Synod, and Hauge\u2019s Synod. The union resulted in a church which mixed confessional orthodoxy and low-church pietism, and happened at a time of great unrest in response to World War I and the problems of assimilation. In 1918, the church voted to remove the word \u201cNorwegian\u201d from its name, but under heavy opposition, the decision reversed its decision the following year. The reversal lasted until 1946, when the NLCA changed its name to the Evangelical Lutheran Church (ELC). In 1960, the ELC took part in the merger which formed The American Lutheran Church, bringing to an end the era of the solely Norwegian American Lutheran Church.<\/p>\n
