Worship
The 2025 synod convention appropriately begins with worship. May the Lord bless us as we praise his name and proclaim his gospel to one another, gaining strength as Christ works in us through Word and sacrament that Christ may continue to work through us in the world.
2025 Delegate Booklet
All the important information about serving as a delegate to the synod convention is included in this booklet. Get information on how to prepare, travel planning, what to expect while at the convention, and more.
Book of Reports and Memorials
The primary source of the convention’s business is the Book of Reports and Memorials (BORAM), which contains various departmental reports as well as formal petitions to the synod convention called “memorials.”
