Mission and ministry stories are due for 2023 Assembly

As we prepare for our 2023 Grand Canyon Synod Assembly, we again ask your help in sharing your story. 

Mission and ministry partners to the Grand Canyon Synod are asked to provide your ministry’s story in a way that works best for you. You can provide us with a written story, photos, audio, video, or a combination of these media. Our only requirement is that the story can be consumed in less than five minutes, with 2-3 minutes being ideal.

Our synod is blessed with many mission and ministry partners. Last year we shared 45 reports, which are far too many to present at an assembly with a full agenda. 

Therefore, we’ll again feature our stories as stand-alone news items in the lead-up to our 2023 assembly. Each story will appear in our blog, Facebook page, and weekly newsletter. We’ll also have an assembly page compiling all our stories.

In creating your story, be creative and be open to the Holy Spirit. Have fun! You can visit our video resource page at http://gcsynod.org/video for tips on filming, and feel free to contact Brian Flatgard, our communications director, at bflatgard@gcsynod.org for any kind of assistance.

 Our theme this year’s events is “Be Bold in Your Baptism,” and our guiding Bible verse is Galatians 3:27: “As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.” Bonus points if you can incorporate that into your story. 😊

Please share your story by May 1, 2023. (Earlier is better as we take the time to develop this important resource.)

Thank you for all you do in our synod, and we look forward to hearing and sharing your story.
