The Election and Call

of the Bishopof the Rocky Mountain Synod

April 26-28, 2012

The Rocky Mountain Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America seeks the Holy Spirit’s guidance in electing and calling a bishop for the Rocky Mountain Synod. The role of the bishop is defined theologically in the Lutheran Confessions and given institutional shape in the constitution of the Rocky Mountain Synod. The responsibilities listed in the synod constitution are quite extensive, yet are the“minimum requirements” for the bishop’s call. We also want to ask: what are the particular gifts, skills, knowledge, and experiences that might best serve the Rocky Mountain Synod over the coming years? What are the characteristics of the leadership that the Spirit may raise up among us? There will be a time in the election process at assembly when nominees will have the opportunity to answer questions from the voting members.
