About Us
The Synod's Vision
As the Southeastern Minnesota Synod, we ask God to:
Gather the hopes and dreams of all,
Unite them with the prayers we offer,
Grace us with God's presence, and
Send us in mission to
MAKE CHRIST KNOWN!

123,000 baptized people in
183 congregations as well as related institutions of the

who was elected in 2001.
