To Permit Brazil District to Elect Boards
of Control

Wuereas, The IELB (Igreja Evangélica Luterana do
Brasil), even though it is still counted as a District of
The Lutheran Church — Missouri Synod, in fact exists
as an independent church: and

Wuereas, The IELB elects its own Board for Higher
Education, which controls, inspects, and surveys its
schools (Instituto Coneérdia of Sao Paulo, Instituto
Concérdia of Sao Leopoldo, and Seminario Concérdia
of Pérto Alegre); and

Wuereas, The Boards of Control of these schools,
even though they are still elected by the convention of
The LCMS, have not been answering to the Board for
Missions in North and South America for about 2 years
(they do not make their requests for funds directly,
neither do they receive the checks directly, nor do they
answer for them directly); therefore be it

Resolved, That the Boards of Control of the schools
of the IELB be elected by its District convention; that
this convention do not elect new Boards of Control for
these schools: and that the term of the present Boards
of Control be extended until January 1970, when they
would be renewed by the convention of the IELB.

To Remove Synodical Lower Level
Enrollment Quotas

Wuereas, Lower level enrollment quotas impede
balanced institutional planning: and

Wuereas, Lower level enrollment quotas discourage
qualified potential students from entering the teaching
ministry; and

Wuereas, It is difficult for delegates in convention
assembled to make intelligent judgments regarding en-
rollment quotas for schools that they have never seen:
therefore be it

Resolved, That the practice of setting lower level
enrollment quotas at synodical conventions be discon-
tinued. Boarp oF CONTROL
