Synod Vision Statement

(Adopted at the 2002 New England Synod Assembly)

New England Synod of the

Evangelical Lutheran Church in America

God’s Abundance: Live It!

Jesus said:

“I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”

John 10:10

As stewards of the Gospel in a world filled with death,

we joyfully embrace our baptismal call by:

► Praying Unceasingly

► Giving Extravagantly

► Insisting on Justice

► Trusting in Partnership

Walking together, we will:

Invite 20,000 more people to worship each Sunday

Double what we now give away

Strengthen our ties with and support of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jerusalem and
the Holy Land (ELCJ/HL)

Link every seeker and youth, every pastor and congregation with partners in faith and mission

This is our abundant life to share.
