“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!
Join us Tuesday, May 26 – Wednesday, May 27, 2026, at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Syracuse for a full Assembly experience under one roof. This year, we’ll lean into curiosity, courage, and creativity as we explore what it means to cultivate a GRACE mindset in a season of experimentation.

We’re delighted to welcome 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. Come ready to be inspired, challenged, and energized for ministry in this moment.
