Invite the Bishop

Invite the Bishop

The synod through the Office of the Bishop journeys with congregations, whether in the joy of celebrating milestones, the uncertainty of pastoral transitions, or trauma of congregational crisis. You can invite Bishop Roth, Pastor Sandlin, Pastor Stein, Pastor Tegtmeier, or Pastor Rothfusz to be present during your celebrations and moments of need.

Please fill out the form below to request a visit. We cannot guarantee that schedules will allow us to meet every request, but we appreciate your congregation’s invitation to walk alongside you and will join as we are able.
