Synod Assembly 2017

We gathered in assembly, June 2-3, at Parkersburg under the theme, "Faith Comes from What Is Heard." Our keynoter, The Rev. Paul Hoffman, a nationally recognized leader in adult faith formation, introduced the assembly to catechetical Bible study through presentation and practice. Thus, the inspiration for our assembly theme (and a great piece of assembly art by Pr. Jess Felici).

The proceedings are still being edited and the minutes are not yet approved. When they are, they will be posted. Until them, you can check out the Pre-Assembly Book of Reports and a digest of the assembly happenings. Click here for more information.
