Best Answer

Yes, unless he joins another church. Also, if the parting was not amicable, it may not be wise to retain membership in that particular congregation for the sake of stability and peace.

A pastor who leaves the ELCA may retain all their retirement accounts with the ELCA Board of Pensions (BOP), transfer them to the LCMC-provided investment opportunities, or transfer them to any private retirement programs of their choice.
