Dear Partners in Mission:

It’s synod assembly week! I have been asked many times over the past few days if we were ready for Assembly. My response is “We will be!” This is a vital time in our life together in mission as we gather to worship, hear updates on ministry, participate in elections, and most importantly spend time together as fellow members of the community called synod.

Synod means to walk together. And that is what we do throughout the year but most visibly when we gather together at assembly. So I look forward to seeing you all there. Thank you to Advent Lutheran in Arlington and Pastor Eric Rude for hosting us. Lets get together and be inspired to Go and Make Disciples.
