FAMILY OF FUNDS

The Lutheran Brotherhood Family of Funds
625 Fourth Avenue South
Minneapolis, MN 55415
Dear Sir or Madam:
You have requested my opinion for use in conjunction with a Rule 24f-2 Notice
for The Lutheran Brotherhood Family of Funds (the "Fund") to be filed in
respect of shares of beneficial interest of the Fund ("Shares") sold for the
fiscal period ended October 31, 1996, pursuant to the Fund's Registration
Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the
Securities Act of 1933 (File No. 2-25984) ("Registration Statement").
In its pre-effective Registration Statement, the Fund elected to register an
indefinite number of Shares pursuant to the provisions of Rule 24f-2.
I have reviewed the amended Registration Statement of the Fund and such other
documents and records deemed relevant. On the basis of the foregoing, it is
my opinion that the Shares sold for the fiscal period ended October 31, 1996,
registration of which the Rule 24f-2 Notice makes definite in number, were
legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
I consent to your filing this opinion as an Exhibit to the Rule 24f-2 Notice
referred to above, the Registration Statement of the Fund and to any
application or Registration Statement filed under the Securities Laws of any
of the States of the United States.
Sincerely,
/s/ Randall L. Wetherille

Assistant Secretary
