Lyn, You will find that address, and more, on the mailing list homepage: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~mdtaffet/lutheran-roots_list.htm At the top of the page, click on "Sources for Lutheran Research". You will be taken to the section of the page that lists addresses associated with a number of different synods. I have thought about using the taglines for things like this in the past; maybe this would be a good time to add some taglines. -- Mary Taffet List Admin for LUTHERAN-ROOTS mdtaffet@syr.edu Lyn_Batdorf wrote: > > Dooris....Thanks soooooo much for posting this address.
