Synod News

Registration fee is $20 per person and includes materials and lunch (provided by Fresh Box). Deadline for registration January 19, 2019.

Synod office Holiday schedule The Southern Ohio Synod office will be closed from Friday, December 21, through Tuesday, January 1, as synod staff enjoy vacation days and holidays for Christmas and New Year's Day. Use the main phone number for emergencies during that time: 614.464.3532. Pr. Bob Abrams, Pr. Katie Kerrigan and Bishop Suzanne Dillahunt will be monitoring email and voicemail during the closure. The synod's e-bulletins will not publish during the break--not that anyone will notice! (We hope you're focusing on your family, church and community, not our e-bulletins. LOL).  Merry Christmas and a blessed new year to you and yours.

'Getting to Know Our Neighbors' latest topic for Parish Paper Vital congregations don’t presume to know what their neighbors need or what ministries would be most helpful. They ask them.
