Registration for the 2026 Rostered Ministers Gathering , happening July 6-9 at the JW Marriott in Indianapolis, Ind., is now open! All ELCA deacons, pastors and bishops (under call, on leave or disability, or retired) and candidates approved for call are invited to a time of intentional connection when we can renew our strength, enjoy camaraderie with colleagues and reflect on the Holy Spirit’s work among us.

All rostered leaders, active and retired, and those On Leave need to submit an annual report to the synod office (It is in the constitution).

These reports give your synod staff essential information about you, and your ministry, and updates to help stay connected.
