The Synod Council members have certain term lengths that vary based on the role. (Learn more about that on the Nominations page.) This means that almost every year at Synod Assembly, we thank some leaders whose time on council is coming to an end and also elect new people to fill vacant positions. Here are some pictures of the council at work over the years.
