Office of the President


Confessing Christ for the Next Generation

The District President is the chief executive of the District representing the Synod in connection with all ordinations, commissionings, and installations. He supervises the doctrine, the life, and the official administration of the ordained or commissioned ministers of the District.

The District President also inquires into the prevailing spiritual conditions of congregations through periodic visits. He may also arrange for an official visit or investigation when a controversy arises or when there is evidence of a continuing unresolved problem in doctrine or practice.

The District President is also responsible for maintaining the official rosters of the District and, with the assistance of his Circuit Visitors, promoting and pursuing unanimous participation by congregations in the submission of annual statistical reports as an expectation of membership in the Synod.
