Northern Great Lakes Synod
Description
Lutheran Christians in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and northeastern Wisconsin are on the edge of a new millennium. Walking together into a new century are the 94 congregations, 137 pastors and 41,000 Lutherans of the Northern Great Lakes Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). .
In 1987, the latest in a series of Lutheran church mergers created the Northern Great Lakes Synod (NGLS), encompassing the entire Upper Peninsula of Michigan and the six adjacent counties in northeastern Wisconsin.
Immigrants from Finland, Sweden, Norway and other European nations began the Lutheran ministry in this Synod area well over a century ago.
