The Bishop Election Committee would like to invite you to a series of listening sessions that started on October 30, 2023. Throughout the fall, we want to create intentional spaces to hear from as many people in our congregations as possible as we work on our synod profile for the upcoming bishop election.
During these one-hour sessions, a pair from our bishop election committee will guide you through a series of questions. We’ll also invite you to share the gifts, responsibilities, and traits you’d like our next bishop in this Synod to have as we discern who God might be calling next to lead our Synod.
We are incredibly grateful to our host congregations who have opened their doors to host this series of listening sessions. In the meantime, bookmark the Bishop Election Committee page for updated information on our 2024 Bishop Election process.
