The calling of a pastor represents
a valuable partnership between God, the congregation, the
synod and
the ELCA. Each member of the partnership is enriched when the
call process results
in a good match between pastor and
congregation. The total mission of the church is furthered
when each member of the partnership is honored, respected and
fulfills its appropriate role in the process.

call process.
ELCA Call Process Website
The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has opened the website,
www.elca.org/call,
to support those involved in call process work—rostered leaders,
congregations, church-related organizations and synods.
The
Call Process Forms
web page interacts with a searchable churchwide
database that allows ministry sites to publish their vacancies, and
rostered leaders to have their mobility information readily
accessible to synod bishops.
Learn how the call process site functions by reading
the online guide found under the menu option, "Using this Site."
