The Nominating Committee of the Florida-Bahamas Synod is preparing the slate of elections for the 2025 Synod Assembly on June 12-14. In preparation for those elections, we ask your help in identifying nominees to fill these important positions. In addition to the election of a synod vice-president and secretary, we will be electing voting members of the Synod Council and members for the Consultation Committee.
We strongly encourage nominations to be submitted online by May 1, prior to the Synod Assembly so they may be included in the Nomination Packet for Voting Members and posted on the synod’s website. This will also facilitate a smoother and more efficient voting process.

Nominations Committee Update
With joy and great anticipation, the Florida-Bahamas Synod Nominations Committee puts forth Pastor Ken Blyth for the office of Synod Secretary and Linda Rosche for the office of Synod Council Vice President. These faithful leaders embody wisdom, energy, and a deep love for the Church. Their gifts for service and vision for ministry will be a blessing to the whole synod as their names are brought forward at the upcoming Synod Assembly.
Pastor Ken Blyth brings years of faithful pastoral leadership and a deep commitment to the mission of the Church. His steady presence, clear communication, and organizational insight make him well-suited to serve as Secretary, a role vital to the life and governance of our synod. Linda Rosche has long been a trusted voice of wisdom and grace within the Florida-Bahamas Synod. Her dedication to collaborative ministry and her gift for lay leadership exemplify the kind of servant-hearted guidance that helps our synod thrive. As Vice President, she would continue a legacy of thoughtful, Spirit-led service. These nominations will be brought before the Synod Assembly for a vote. We give thanks to God for the many ways the Holy Spirit raises up leaders among us to serve with faith, humility, and courage. As we move forward together, we are reminded of the words of the Apostle Paul: “Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of services, but the same Lord.”— 1 Corinthians 12:4–5 (NRSV) Let us hold Pastor Ken and Linda in prayer as they discern this call and let us rejoice in all those who offer themselves in service to Christ’s Church. |
