Synod Assembly

Synod Assembly 

Edward D. Hansen Conference Center in Everett

Two days: May 16, 1pm-8pm ...and... May 17, 9am-4pm

This will be a two-day event at the Edward D Hansen Conference Center in Everett. We will gather as a synod for worship, reports from our synod and churchwide leaders, elections, resolutions, ministry anniversary celebrations, sharing in conversation around our theme of being woven into God's story, and a few fun surprises. Additionally, we will be identifying a person to serve as bishop for the next 6 years. For more information on the bishop call process, see this page on our website.

A note from your synod council: next year - 2026 - will be a Gathering Year. So, in addition to these May 2025 dates, Assembly Voting Members will be asked to return for a brief special online meeting in May of 2026. This limited-agenda meeting will include the election of synod vice president and synod secretary. Please keep these additional dates in mind as you seek out potential voting members from your ministry site. Thank you!

Each congregation / worshiping community is to review the Lay Voting Allotment Chart in the download section below - and make plans now to elect lay voting members to attend the assembly. Registration info (including a handy dandy form to use with your elected lay voting members to collect needed info for group registration) will arrive in congregation email inboxes in late January.

Registration will be open March 1 through April 1 - online only.

Cost per voting member is $175 (fee includes dinner on Friday and Lunch on Saturday).

More info coming soon!

Should you have any questions in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to contact the Synod Office 206-783-9292 or Susan@lutheransnw.org.
