Synod Listening Session
October 28 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Your voice can help set the direction of the Southwestern Minnesota Synod.
It all started with the survey. Remember that survey? Yeah, the synod survey launched at Synod Assembly! It’s been about 3 years since we’ve undertaken an effort like this, so it’s high time we created this opportunity to listen to you. Why? Because you matter. Your voice matters. And we are excited for you to discover what others are saying about ministry today!
A team of synod leaders planned a listening process that builds on what we learned from the survey to:
• live out the Synod Council and staff commitment to listen intentionally to our people;
• grow in direct connection with congregations and rostered ministers;
• expand the synod’s ability to equip congregations;
• build awareness of synod ministry; and,
• expand solidarity among congregations.
These listening gatherings will be going on the road to locations that we hope are near you!
• Tuesday, October 22, 7:00-8:30 p.m. – Our Savior’s Lutheran, New Ulm
• Thursday, October 24, 7:00-8:30 p.m. – St. Stephen, Marshall
• Monday, October 28, 7:00-8:30 p.m. – Zoom (see link below)
• Tuesday, October 29, 7:00-8:30 p.m. – Our Savior’s, Albany
During the evening, participants will be able to view summaries from the survey, especially focusing on what others say has changed for people in their families, congregations, community, and world. We will discover both the uniqueness of every context, and also the similarities we all share these days. And we will consider best practices and wisdom for next steps in ministry, wherever God planted us.
