Call Process

Each of the sixty-five synods of the ELCA is responsible for the management of the call process within the territory of their respective synod.

Call Process is that unique and prayerful way by which the synods of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America engage their congregations, church-related organizations and rostered leaders (ordained ministers, associates in ministry, diaconal ministers, deaconesses, including candidates for each of these rosters) in a time of thoughtful assessment and spiritual discernment of the way God may be drawing each toward the other for mutual ministry for the sake of the mission and ministry of the church.

Pastor Dan Bollman is the Assistant to the Bishop responsible for the call process.

Information about the call process in the Rocky Mountain Synod is summarized in this booklet:
