Large Membership Congregations

Congregations are communities of faith. Congregations are the heart beat of the church. Regardless of size, congregations are where the people of God gather together to worship, to celebrate, to serve, and to let the pulse of God’s Spirit move them to an even great future of witness and service.
Every congregation is gifted, and every sized congregation has special gifts unique to that sized congregation. This page is devoted to celebrating and sharing the unique gifts of large congregations.
Welcome to this webpage. I hope it can be a connecting point and a resource for you in your ministry. I also hope you will share your gifts with this website. As you can see, there are places for you to contribute. As you contribute from your wisdom and experience, this website grows. Please be a contributor.
Thank you for your ministry in congregations large and small.
Christ’s Peace,
Rev. Mark A. Grorud
ELCA Director for Relationships with Large Membership Congregations
