==Mass shooting by Terry Ratzmann== On March 12, 2005, the LCG was thrust into national and international spotlight when member [[Terry Ratzmann]] (aged 44) shot at his brethren congregated for church services at the Sheraton Hotel in [[Brookfield, Wisconsin]]. It was one of the worst mass shootings in the state's history. Ratzmann killed eight, including his pastor, his pastor's son, and himself. No conclusive motive for the mass murder was reached, though police investigated religious issues as potential motives for the shooting <ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/03/national/motive-still-unclear-in-milwaukee-church-shooting.html|work=The New York Times |title=Motive Still Unclear in Milwaukee Church Shooting |date=August 3, 2005}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Wilgoren|first=Jodi|title=Police Focus on Religion in Milwaukee Shootings|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/15/us/police-focus-on-religion-in-milwaukee-shootings.html|work=The New York Times|access-date=January 24, 2012|date=March 15, 2005}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Banerjee|first=Neela|title=Rampage Puts Spotlight on a Church Community|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/18/us/rampage-puts-spotlight-on-a-church-community.html|work=The New York Times|date=March 18, 2005 |access-date=January 24, 2012}}</ref>
