Volunteer Meeting Set for July 16 as Grand Canyon Synod Prepares to Host 2025 Churchwide Assembly
The Grand Canyon Synod is honored to host the 2025 ELCA Churchwide Assembly, a vital event that gathers leaders from across the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America to worship, discern, and shape the direction of our shared ministry. To make this gathering a success, we’re calling on volunteers—people like you—who want to serve the wider church with joy, hospitality, and a spirit of welcome.
We are currently seeking up to 100 volunteers for a variety of roles, including airport greeters, registration assistance, worship support, hospitality, and tech help. If you’ve already signed up or are considering it, you’re invited to an upcoming informational Zoom meeting:
CWA Volunteer Informational Meeting
📅 Wednesday, July 16, 2025
⏰ 4:30 PM Arizona Time (currently the same as Pacific Time)
Meeting ID: 853 9033 3447
Passcode: 594046
This session will provide detailed information about volunteer shifts, answer frequently asked questions, and allow time for Q&A. Representatives from Churchwide staff will also be present to share insights and expectations based on their experience. Please note that flexibility will be essential, as schedules may shift even after the assembly begins.
If you’re unable to attend live, a recording will be posted afterward at gcsynod.org/cwa. We strongly encourage all volunteers to watch it when convenient.
Whether you’re a seasoned event volunteer or new to helping at this level, your presence and service embody the Lutheran value of showing up for one another in Christ’s name. Thank you for saying yes to this opportunity!
