Around the Synod 2011-13 Missional Directions
Share Your Thoughts on Word and Sacrament Ministry Within the ELCIC

From Bishop Elaine:
Please note the short turnaround on this survey.
JUNE 1 DEADLINE!!!

It is very important that our synod membership give input as the topic of lay people presiding at communion and the role of the clergy has been on our agenda and a major issue for our congregations for most of our history as an MNO Synod. Many of you have expressed this concern at conference conventions, in rostered ministry gatherings and at our conventions. Now is the time to respond.

Dear Synod Family

Synod Council dedicated the month of September 2013 as ELCIC Praise Appeal emphasis. Each congregation is asked to dedicate one Sunday in September to invite congregational members to support the appeal from the national church. As you begin Sept. start up activities it be a good time to praise God for the national expression of the church.

As you recall the history of your congregation you may remember that it was a national body of a church denomination that partnered with local folks to create the congregation. Through mission support or relief efforts like Canadian Lutheran world Relief, your congregation has benefitted from belonging to and partnering with the national church. Members were called and facilities were created as a result of this missional work many years ago.
