More information


Convention postponed from 2022 to 2023

In early 2021, the congregations of the LCMS approved, by over 90%, a proposal to extend the current 2019–2022 triennium, pushing the Synod’s previously scheduled 2022 national convention to 2023 and extending the timeline for districts that wish to delay their conventions from 2021 into 2022. The measure came as the impact of COVID-19 continues to be felt in both the church and the world.
