Katherine von Bora Luther is celebrated as the model pastor's wife. For centuries Lutheran women in that role have assisted their husbands; and other women have rejected it. Now women serve as pastors in their own right. Some do so as partners with a clergy spouse. In the context of greater social acceptance of various sexualities and following the ELCA's 2009 decisions about homosexulaitay, data was also collected about clergy self-identification in their ministry settings.<\/h4><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_1  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_code et_pb_code_0  et_pb_text_align_center\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_code_inner\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"371\" seamless frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheets\/d\/e\/2PACX-1vRz2IliwBDpUYFVG5OgwNTVBPLjARvMiH43OdTJWbF2VQ1DegrwZA-ixXDBw7FvtAamM0Ldt0-RSEnK\/pubchart?oid=645291391&format=interactive\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_1  et_pb_text_align_center et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Figure 12 shows that in 1994 women were considerably more likely than men to be single. <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_2  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column et_pb_column_2  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_code et_pb_code_1  et_pb_text_align_center\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_code_inner\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"371\" seamless frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheets\/d\/e\/2PACX-1vRz2IliwBDpUYFVG5OgwNTVBPLjARvMiH43OdTJWbF2VQ1DegrwZA-ixXDBw7FvtAamM0Ldt0-RSEnK\/pubchart?oid=48712647&format=interactive\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_2  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Figure 13 shows that nearly half of the women who were married were married to other clergy.
