Friday, May 14 – Saturday, May 15, 2021 at Messiah Lutheran Church, Auburn

If we are able to safely meet in-person, then we will be at Messiah Lutheran Church in Auburn.  If we are not able to meet safely, then we will have a virtual Synod Assembly.  We’ll know what it will look like as we get closer to the spring.  However, either way, we need lay and rostered voting members from each of our congregations.

What is the Synod Assembly?
The Synod Assembly is this Synod’s highest legislative authority working with rostered and lay voting members from all of our congregations and mission starts. Each congregation sends at least two lay voting members along with their rostered ministers.  
 
What do we do there?
We will have the opportunity to think and plan for the future of the ELCA and your congregation.  We will learn stories of congregations already in the renewal process, learn about ELCA ministries, elect a synod bishop and many other elected positions , hear from our ELCA Churchwide representative on the ministry that the ELCA does worldwide, learn things to help our congregations, participate in workshops about moving forward in your ministries and how we can help the Church move into the future in new ways, interactive displays.plus we’ll have two beautiful and unique worship services for us to participate in together.   You will love hearing the 300-400 voices harmonize together!
