2027 Synod Assembly
June 6-8
“I am about to do a new thing; now it springs forth!”
— Isaiah 43:19a
Something new is springing forth—and you’re invited to be part of it!
From the 2026 Assembly
The Upstate NY Synod Assembly was held Tuesday, May 26 – Wednesday, May 27, 2026, at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Syracuse. This year, we leaned into curiosity, courage, and creativity as we explored what it means to cultivate a GRACE mindset in a season of experimentation.
We’re thankful for the presence and gifts of the Rev. Dr. Carmelo Santos, Director of Theological Diversity and Engagement for the ELCA Churchwide organization, and special guest the Rev. Dr. Karyn Wiseman, Stuempfle-Folkemer Professor of Homiletics at United Lutheran Seminary. And Patrick Greene.
