- The Kretzmann Commission was constituted in 1969 by the Board of Governors of the Andhra Christian Theological College, Hyderabad to: survey and study the task of theological education in the Churches related to the College Society These ecclesiastical societies related to the college society at that point of time (1969) included:
* South Andhra Lutheran Church Society
* Samavesam of Telugu Baptist Churches Society
* Methodist Church of South Asia Society
* Convention of Baptist Churches of Northern Circars Society
* Church of South India Society (Dioceses of Dornakal, Krishna-Godavari, Medak, and Rayalaseema
* Church of India, Pakistan, Burma, and Ceylon Society, Diocese of Nandyal
* Andhra Evangelical Lutheran Church Society The Commission report was tabled before the Board of Governors of the College Society which eventually led to the building up of curriculum-intensive courses and the equipping of the seminarians with capacities to lead the church in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Theological education took an upward rise with the Kretzmann Commission Report. The Kretzmann Commission was enabled with the assistance of the Theological Education Fund of the World Council of Churches and the Board of World Missions of the Lutheran Church in America. The secretary of the Board of Governors, W. D. Coleman, on behalf of the board published 1,000 copies to be circulated among the Churches in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. A couple of years before the Kretzmann Commission was constituted, seminarians deliberated on the church's mission with special reference to Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. In 1966, a graduate thesis was undertaken by a candidate studying at Serampore College entitled The Hebrew Concept of 'Righteousness' as proclaimed by the 8th century Prophets and its implications for the Church's mission in Andhra Pradesh (en)
