The synod in convention is the legislative body of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS). It meets every other year to establish, review, and amend the policies and direction of WELS as we pursue our mission. District conventions are held the following year in all twelve districts.

The 2009 synod convention will be held July 27-31 at Michigan Lutheran Seminary, Saginaw, Mich. Watch for more information.
