How many voting members is my congregation supposed to bring?
Each congregation is allowed to bring a certain number of voting members to the synod assembly, as determined by annual congregational statistics reported to the ELCA.*
To find out the number of voting members for your congregation, see the Voting Member Allocation Chart (PDF).
*Each congregation is allotted lay voting members as follows, according to baptized membership: one voting member for congregations having fewer than 175 baptized members. Two voting members for congregations of 175-500 members, with an additional voting member for every 500 baptized members or major fraction thereof (i.e., 501-749 = 2 voting members; 750-1249 = 3 voting members; 1250-1749 = 4 voting members, etc.).
