SYNOD COUNCIL

Members of the Synod Council are elected by the Synod Assembly

 

The highest legislative body of the synod is the Synod Assembly. Voting members from each congregation and all rostered leaders gather annually for this meeting. Between assemblies, the Synod Council serves as the "board of directors." The Synod Council is made up of voting members from the five conferences, as well as four officers: The Bishop, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer.
