As we gather for the 2026 Synod Assembly under the theme “Rooted in God’s Story,” we are invited not only to reflect on God’s work—but to participate in it.
This year’s Assembly service project brings us together in hands-on service for two vital community partners: The West Valley Community Food Pantry and First Place Community Center Food Bank. Together, we will pack 800 pounds of rice and 800 pounds of beans, providing essential food for families across our communities.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
Assembly participants will take part in simple, meaningful work:
This is work that anyone can do—and when we do it together, it becomes a powerful expression of shared ministry.
WHY IT MATTERS
Rice and beans are staple foods that go a long way in supporting families facing food insecurity. Through this project, our collective effort will extend far beyond the Assembly, reaching neighbors throughout our synod and beyond.
At the close of the Assembly, these gifts will be blessed during worship, grounding our service in prayer and sending it forward as part of God’s ongoing story of provision and care.
MULTIPLY THE IMPACT
You can extend this ministry even further through a financial gift:

In Luther’s explanation of the Lord’s Prayer, we pray for “daily bread”—not just for ourselves, but for our neighbors. This Assembly, we have the opportunity to be part of God’s answer to that prayer.
Come ready to serve, give generously, and help us share daily bread in tangible ways.
