ELCA Churchwide
Job Openings
The churchwide organization, together with the ELCA’s congregations and synods, ensures a solid foundation of leadership, active involvement in communities, opportunities for dialogue and diverse perspectives, creative partnerships, and support for members and ministries of the ELCA. The churchwide organization’s work and functions are guided by the Churchwide Assembly, the Church Council and four elected officers. Our staff and officers work at the Lutheran Center in Chicago and remotely from locations around the world serving as administrators, advisors, conveners, partners, and resource people for the ELCA and its ministries.
The work God calls us to do in the world is never done alone or in isolation, and the churchwide organization plays a key role in developing and supporting a culture of interdependence, diversity, and common mission across all expressions of the ELCA and its partners.
